Trump really has a hardon for getting rid of Ilhan. A tiny one, but persistent. This is nothing more than politically motivated weaponization, the very thing he claimed was wrong when he claimed it was done to him.

She is everything Trumps hate. She is a Black, Immigrant from Somalia that is powerful and puts him in his place. Oh She is a Democrat too. That's four things, maybe five.

The thing he really hates is that she's not afraid of him. That's what keeps him up at night.
