"We are going to continue to be a nightmare to this president because his policies are a nightmare to us", she told a crowd in Minneapolis.
Trump had whipped the Pitt County crowd into a frenzy by calling Democrats "socialists" and accusing Omar of "vicious, anti-Semitic screeds".
"If you are not happy with this country, if you want to compare us to terrorists, if you want to say we're responsible for terrorism, trade places with an immigrant who wants to be here and take advantage of the greatness of this country", she said.
Rep. Ilhan Omar, shown here at the Capitol on Thursday, has been a target of racist rhetoric from President Trump.
Last weekend he ignited the firestorm by tweeting the four should "go back" to where they came from if they do not like the United States. Ms. Omar, who was born in Somalia, has been a naturalized citizen since she was a teenager.
The former is his advice for members of Congress he perceives as hating America; the latter is the chant his criticism of those alleged America haters-in particular, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), who immigrated to the US from Somalia as a child-elicited from the adoring crowd at his rally in North Carolina on Wednesday.
Lin-Manuel Miranda geeks out on 'His Dark Materials'
The His Dark Materials adaptation will be produced by Jane Tranter and Julie Gardner's Bad Wolf with New Line Cinema for BBC One. But honestly, I think a world where animal companions are the physical manifestation of a person's soul sounds pretty awesome.
"The only debate left is whether we, as a country, care enough to make a stand against racism", he said. "But I'm unhappy when a congresswoman goes and says, 'I'm going to be the president's nightmare'". "All I'm saying is if they want to leave, they can leave now".
"Americans of conscience have a proud history of participating in boycotts to advocate for human rights overseas including ... boycotting Nazi Germany from March 1933 to October 1941 in response to the dehumanization of the Jewish people in the lead-up to the Holocaust", Omar told her colleagues when introducing the legislation Tuesday. Besides Omar, the other three are Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib and Ayanna Pressley. The committee has also increasingly given Trump-style nicknames to Democrats, a tactic that has been criticized by current and former House Republican lawmakers.
Even in the wildly divided times we live in, the issue of Trump's now-protracted racist attack has been especially contentious.
A White House spokesman did not immediately respond to a question regarding the change. "They undermine it. He should not be the President of the United States", he added. I think she and The Squad ought to speak as freely and in front of a camera as often as possible.
Others tried to delegitimize Omar in memes that falsely claim Obama resettled 70,000 Somali refugees in Minnesota in an effort to ensure her election.
