Rep. Ilhan Omar
After pro Somali, Somali-American Congresswoman Ilhan Omar characterized 9/11 as, "Some people did something...," the pro American Trump took umbrage at that anti American characterization of that horrific event.
Democrats have reflexively come to Omar's defense, led by an embarrassment from NYC, Gerald Nadler, who said, "He (Trump) has no moral authority to be talking about 9/11 at all." (https://nypost.com/…/democrats-rush-to-omars-defense-after…/)
The New York Democrat told CNN’s Jake Tapper that he'd worked on getting funding for small business grants for victims with businesses that were impacted when the World Trade Center fell.
Yeah so did a LOT of Washington, D.C. and ALL of that was passed and signed into law by a Republican Congress (House & Senate) and a Republican President.
Gerald Nadler had little, to nothing to do with it.
Nadler went on, “The president – he wasn’t president, but Donald Trump actually took a $150,000 grant from the Bush administration,” Nadler said. “He stole $150,000 from some small businessperson who could have used it to help rehabilitate himself.”
THAT last part ("stole") is a LIE and Nadler knows it.
Even Left-leaning fact-checking website Snopes had previously investigated the claim that the president improperly received $150,000 after 9/11 and found that the grant money wasn’t specifically earmarked for small businesses, nor was it improperly accessed by Trump.
Nadler told CNN that he had no problem with how Omar had characterized the attacks by al-Qaida terrorists on 9/11/2001.
There you go, ENOUGH said...
