'I don't think it is the president who's putting her in danger. I think it's her ill-thought-out words,' said a communications director for Trump's 2020 campaign.
A campaign aide for President Donald Trump's 2020 re-election bid has blamed Representative Ilhan Omar for the threats against her.
"Make no mistake: no congressperson, no American should be threatened. No one is inciting violence. I think what they're doing is showing outrage toward words that should have been better thought out," he continued. Republicans including Trump and Texas representative Dan Crenshaw clipped Omar's words and have focused on the phrase"some people did something" to portray her as minimizing the severity of the events."Since the president’s tweet Friday evening, I have experienced an increase in direct threats on my life–many directly referencing or replying to the president’s video," Omar said in a statement on Sunday night.
