A reporter asked Trump about recent comments by Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, who said he’s proud to have the largest Somali community in the U.S. — a community Trump reportedly plans to target. Advertisement“I wouldn’t be proud to have the largest Somalian― look at their nation,” Trump snapped before going on a hateful tirade. During a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday, Trump called Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) “garbage” while insulting her birthplace, Somalia. Trump launched into yet another xenophobic tirade against Somali immigrants during an Oval Office meeting on Wednesday. According to multiple media reports, Immigration and Customs Enforcement is descending on Minneapolis and St. Paul in an operation focused on apprehending undocumented Somali immigrants in the region.
