Hours after Rep. Ilhan Omar and the rest of the so-called Squad hit back after being subjected to two days of President Trump’s racist attacks, the Minnesota Democrat appeared on MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show to follow up on their fiery Monday press conference.
“Look, many of us, as I said today, when we are brown and black in this country have been subjected to the old racist trope of ‘go back to where you came from,’” the Minnesota lawmaker replied. “Whether it happens at a school playground or inside the hallway or someone shouting at you in the street, many of us have had our responses.”
“Obviously you have a platform because you are looked to for a response to these attacks from the president that is of his making, but also you get to speak on your own terms once you get that,” Maddow wondered aloud. “How do you sort of avoid helping him do his work of distracting from the kinds of things you just described?”
