Omar is not a terrorist or a terrorist sympathiser. Omar is not useless or lazy. She fails to satisfy the image the president has spent years warning against.
Trump’s rhetoric has always been about the past. His slogan Make America Great Again thrives among certain audiences because of one word: again.
