Trump Shares Skepticism Over Ilhan Omar Being Sprayed at Town Hall: ‘I Think She’s a Fraud’

Tuesday night’s bizarre attack on leftist Rep. Ilhan Omar, a Democrat from Minnesota, did not draw a lot of sympathy from President Donald Trump.

Interviewed by ABC correspondent Rachel Scott, Trump shrugged off the news of the incident at a Minneapolis town hall, in which a man sprayed an unknown substance at Omar while she was denouncing Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.

And Trump even suggested Omar herself was behind it.

Just spoke to Pres. Trump. I asked him if he had seen the video of Rep. Omar being attacked and sprayed by a substance.

“No. I don’t think about her. I think she’s a fraud. I really don’t think about that. She probably had herself sprayed, knowing her,” the president said.
