If Trump wins in 2020 & fulfills his promises (highly probable), life is gonna be very difficult for Somalis in Minnesota.For roughly six minutes Thursday night, President Trump predictably singled out Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) during his campaign rally in her home district of Minneapolis. As photos of Omar wearing a headscarf flashed across jumbo screens at the Target Center in the city, Trump ramped up his broadsides against the freshman lawmaker, slamming her as an “America-hating socialist” and a “disgrace.” But he didn’t stop there.
The president soon widened his attack to target Somali refugees in Minnesota, a group that includes Omar, a naturalized U.S. citizen who was born in the East African country. He promised rally attendees, who booed loudly at the mention of the state’s Somali residents, that he would “give local communities a greater say in refugee policy and put in place enhanced vetting and responsible immigration controls.”
“As you know for many years leaders in Washington brought large numbers of refugees to your state from Somalia without considering the impact on schools and communities and taxpayers,” he said as some in the crowd jeered, adding, “You should be able to decide what is best for your own cities and for your own neighborhoods and that’s what you have the right to do right now, and believe me, no other president would be doing that.”




You bet! Given how he ran his 2016 campaign full of trolling, hateful rhetoric, and extreme vulgarness towards women, disable people, and his competitors and still managed to get elected, I would not be surprised if he wins second term again. The guy is known for literally holding grudges w/ anyone that is against him, so best believe he is coming for miss Ilhan and her people (Not that he spared them alreadyIf Trump wins in 2020 & fulfills his promises (highly probable), life is gonna be very difficult for Somalis in Minnesota.For roughly six minutes Thursday night, President Trump predictably singled out Rep.

Yh i know. Him winning MN would be quite a shock. It's not a swing state like VA, PA, OH, or NHHe isn't winning Minnesota in 2020.

I doubt he can win Virginia. He is hated in Northern Virginia and that's where the most votes are.Yh i know. Him winning MN would be quite a shock. It's not a swing state like VA, PA, OH, or NHHe isn't winning Minnesota in 2020.
As a result of the Dems' obsession with impeachment (issuing historical number of subpoenas), Trump is getting more sympathy & support in Minnesota:You bet!

Clinton's margin* of victory was only 1.52% in 2016, so it's highly probable Trump winning in 2020.Abdi, born and raised in Minnesota, said the president’s words and the crowd’s reaction left him wondering: “What if my former classmates were among the ones booing? What if it was my former teachers booing?”
“I didn’t know we were hated like that,” he said. “Donald Trump is one man, but what scares me is the amount of support he has.”
