Where did you get that info? Secret Service would like to know!

Notice he doesn't say HE is going. 

Typical lazy liberal.

Well, I dunno.  I'm sure the photographs don't show the whole area.

I think it's nice for the president to show some solidarity with the blue collar working class.

Searching on the protest at the Nuss facility, it turns out it's CAIR sponsoring it.  Only story was 12 hours ago announcing it.  No story on the outcome.

In my research, I couldn't find a positive comment towards congresscritter jihad anywhere. 

Only 1 comment at the dump:

1. What? No huge venue that holds thousands of people?

With a shruggy smiley.  Rockhead just said no. 

Not a winning issue, DUmmies.  Even though someone over there said the other day that this was surely toast for Trump.     People are PISSED.

I'm sure there were countless dozens there to "protest".  Yet the media will have a gargantuan story about it in MN.

From https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-omar/ilhan-omars-supporters-rally-outside-trump-event-in-minnesota-idUSKCN1RR1WD :

The Minnesota branch of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a Muslim civil rights and advocacy group, responded to Trump’s attacks by organizing the rally, where people carried signs and chanted in support of Omar.

Democrats “could have done more to help [Omar] out, but in the end I think they care more about their image,” said Abdirahman Abdullahi, an area resident.

About 200 people rallied in support of Omar while another 200 supporters of Trump gathered across the street and waved American flags.

It's Reuters, so the Omar supporters were probably significantly over-estimated and the Trump-supporters significantly under-estimated. It's MSM thing.
