(NY DAILY NEWS) Former President Donald Trump Tuesday joined in the chorus of anti-Muslim attacks on Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) after Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) refused to apologize for suggesting her fellow lawmaker should be a suspected terrorist.

“Omar should apologize for marrying her brother, committing large-scale immigration and election fraud, wishing death to Israel, and for essentially abandoning her former country,” Trump said in an email statement.
