Ilhan Omar defended Donald Trump during meeting, Republican says

Rep. Ilhan Omar defended President Trump against a Belgian politician’s criticism during a European Union visit to show bipartisan unity, according to Rep. Anna Paulina Luna.

  • During a House delegation meeting with European Union members, Representative Ilhan Omar defended President Donald Trump after a politician from Belgium insulted the U.S. delegation.
  • To preserve cohesion, Luna said the American delegation aimed to present a `united front` and recounted Omar telling the Belgian politician `You may not like what our president is doing, and you might not agree with our foreign policy`, Luna said.
  • Given Omar's history of harsh remarks about the president, her rebuke was notable since Representative Ilhan Omar, Minnesota Democrat, called President Donald Trump an `embarrassing, racist, corrupt liar` earlier this month and on X on October 7.
  • The PBD Podcast disclosure last week produced a stunned reaction as Anna Paulina Luna revealed the exchange, and Newsweek sought comment from Representative Ilhan Omar's office.
  • Amplified online on October 26, 2025, MJTruthUltra tweeted about the episode and the full 170 minute PBD episode is available on YouTube, with observers noting unusual cross-party unity despite Omar's expected criticism.
