Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar on Wednesday evening blamed President Trump for the apple cider vinegar attack.
President Trump and others speculated that the so-called attack on Ilhan Omar was staged to distract from the probe into her mysterious jump in personal wealth.
A man, identified as 55-year-old Anthony Kazmierczak, charged at Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar during a town hall on Tuesday evening and sprayed her with apple cider vinegar.
“DHS Secretary Kristi Noem must resign or face impeachment,” Omar said on Tuesday evening to applause.
A few seconds later, Kazmierczak rushed up to the podium and sprayed Omar with the foul-smelling liquid.
“We will continue! This f*cking a**hole is not going to get away with it!” Ilhan Omar shouted.
Ilhan Omar held a candlelight vigil for Alex Pretti, the violent armed man who was fatally shot by DHS agents while he was resisting arrest.
Omar claimed President Trump is “intimidating” her and blamed him for the apple cider vinegar attack.
When asked about the apple cider vinegar attack on Omar, Trump suggested it was staged.
“No. I don’t think about her,” Trump told ABC News. “I think she’s a fraud. I really don’t think about that. She probably had herself sprayed, knowing her.”
The Muslima claimed she has to pay for security because Trump is “obsessed” with her.
“I wouldn’t be where I am at today, having to pay for security, having the government to think about providing me security if Donald Trump wasn’t in office and if he wasn’t so obsessed with me,” Omar said.
“It is ironic that just last night he was on stage moments before I was attacked talking about me, and then when asked about my attack, he said, ‘I don’t think about her,’” she added.
