Ted Cruz slams Ilhan Omar over now-deleted tweet on immigration

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Tex, called out Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn, over a now-deleted tweet that suggested having a merit-based immigration system would disadvantage Latino migrants.

Earlier this month, President Trump unveiled his plans for immigration reform, including the installation of a merit-based system that grants migrants entry into the United States based on their trade, skill level, and education.

On Tuesday night, Omar slammed Trump's proposal in a tweet that has since been deleted from her Twitter page.

It's interesting she should use the pronouns our and we in her tweet when she usually condemns the country and it's people.  She is definitely playing the American people with her choice of words. :nono:

A "merit-based" immigration system would all-but exclude Somalians completely -- how many from that sh++hole are worth anything to a Western nation?

Omar knows this -- she's the perfect example!
