WATCH: Trump Posts BRUTAL Video Smacking Ilhan Omar For 9/11 Comments
The video begins with a clip of Rep. Omar referring to the 9/11 atrocity as being an instance where "some people did something" during a speech she gave in March for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
The video then cuts to news footage of the second plane crashing into the Twin Towers, before cutting back to Omar's "some people did something" remark. This sequence is repeated two more times, as the horrifying realities of that fateful day are showcased.
“September 11, 2001, We Remember," text reads across the screen, ending the clip.
Earlier in the day, Omar attempted to defend her 9/11 comments by quoting former President George W. Bush and suggesting he did not receive backlash because he wasn’t Muslim as she is.
“'The people — and the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon!’ President George W. Bush. Was Bush downplaying the terrorist attack? What if he was a Muslim?” she wrote.
