US EditionPresident Trump Uses Slur in Thanksgiving Social Media Post; Here’s What He Said
Trump targeted Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Rep. Ilhan Omar with racist and anti-immigrant attacks during his Thanksgiving remarks amid ongoing health scrutiny.
- On Thursday, President Donald Trump posted a Thanksgiving message on Truth Social using a mental-health slur against Governor Tim Walz and attacking Representative Ilhan Omar and refugees.
- Repeating prior narratives, Trump claimed immigrants come from failed nations and criminal groups, attacking politically correct views after beginning with Thanksgiving salutations, and he has previously mocked Serge Kovaleski, journalist.
- Walz replied on X demanding Trump `Release the MRI results`, linking it to Trump's recent `PERFECT PHYSICAL EXAM AND A COMPREHENSIVE COGNITIVE TEST`.
- Walz's brief clapback prompted Indiana Senator Mike Bohacek to criticize Trump's language and announce he will vote no on the redistricting vote, citing advocacy for people with intellectual disabilities.
- Amid wider scrutiny, critics say the episode raises questions about the president's fitness after he has faced health doubts this year and debate over the Republican One Big Beautiful Bill and a CBO estimate that 10 million Americans could lose health insurance by 2034.
