Social media erupted with criticism on Wednesday evening after some in the crowd at a campaign rally for Donald Trump in Greenville, North Carolina, chanted “Send her back!” after the president criticized Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN).

The chant was short-lived, and began as President Trump began criticizing Omar for her history of antisemitic comments. Trump did not appear to anticipate the chant, or to encourage it, and did not react to it in real time.
Reaction to the chant sent “#TrumpRally” to the top of Twitter trends in the United States. Democrats were aghast:
Some conservatives also criticized the chant:
Others suggested taking the chant with a grain of salt — or a sense of humor:
Omar herself responded by quoting a Maya Angelou poem:
The chant dominated post-rally coverage and commentary on CNN and other outlets.

Where is the OUTRAGE over their racist, hateful, comments they have continued to make non-stop against the President, Israel, our Flag, our country, against ICE, against our Border Patrol, against our military, the nasty comments about the very laws THEY pass and we are enforcing!

Calling us deplorables, garbage, Nazi's, racists, white supremist. The Holocaust, the list is long!

Tahlib saying "I'm gonna impeach the M-F'er" in front of her children!!!! PELOSI DID NOT CONDEMN THAT NASTY MOUTH!

Where is the OUTRAGE against Maxine Watters vile comments to attack us at the gas stations, on the streets, in the restaurants, at work, in our schools? That woman has spewed her racist garbage for decades and gets away with it.

They can sure dish out the hateful rhetoric and have gotten away with it for decades...we are now fighting back against these hateful people, THEIR division, they created, and the destruction of our country.

Exposing them for their LIES and their failed policies against the American people.

They have not disavowed their own nasty comments, or attacks by Antifa, or terrorist organizations.

FREE SPEECH IS OK FOR THEIR HATEFUL RETEROIC BUT WE CANNOT SPEAK BACK TO DEFEND OURSELVES AGAINST THEIR ATTACKS?

FREEDOM IS A ONE-WAY STREET IN THIS COUNTRY ACCORDING TO THE DEMOCRATS! THAT IS SOCIALISM AND THEY CONTROL YOU AND EVERYTHING YOU SAY AND DO AND SQUELCH YOUR SPEECH BUT NOT THEIRS PEOPLE!!! GET IT???

THEY ARE "FREE" TO ATTACK US AND WE ARE "FREE" TO TELL THEM TO LEAVE THIS COUNTY IF THEY DO NOT LIKE IT!

WE ARE SICK OF THIS RACIST CRAP CARD BEING PLAYED OVER AND OVER LIKE A BROKEN RECORD BY THE DEMOCRATS.

KNOCK IT OFF ALREADY!
