Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) clapped back at President Donald Trump on Thursday after the president said in the Oval Office that he asked the president of Somalia to take her back.

Trump made the claim in the Oval Office after he signed an executive order approving a deal to make the popular social media app TikTok an American-owned company.

"I suggested maybe he'd like to take her back," Trump said of his conversation with Somalia's president, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud. "He said, 'I don't want her.'"

Omar responded to Trump's claims in a post on her official X account. "From denying Somalia had a president to making up a story, President Trump is a lying buffoon," Omar wrote. "No one should take this embarrassing fool seriously."

2. Well, if you want her gone so badly, come on up here and get her.

Good luck getting through the rest of us here to do that.

We elected her and she stays. And, we will defend her.

More Democratic politicians need to respond to Trump this way.
