Jim Acosta Says Trump Should Be Impeached Over Hateful Comments About the Somali Community

Remember, during his first term, when President Donald Trump referred to Haiti as a "s**thole country"? Celebrities started posing in their "Haiti Is Great Already" T-shirts they got from Conan O'Brien, who flew to a gated luxury resort there to report back what a beautiful place the country is.

Now, NBC News reports that Trump is on his second day of hate-filled rants about Somalia.

Dareh Gregorian reports:

For a second day in a row, President Donald Trump launched into a hate-filled rant against Somalia and Somali immigrants living in the U.S., saying they’ve “destroyed Minnesota” and “our country.”

Minnesota, Trump said, is “a hellhole right now. The Somalians should be out of here. They’ve destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain.”

Speaking to reporters after an event in the Oval Office, Trump amped up his attacks on Somali-born Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., on Wednesday saying, “She shouldn’t be allowed to be a congresswoman, and I’m sure people are looking at that. She should be thrown the hell out of our country.”

Rep. Al Green's already tried to introduce articles of impeachment twice now during Trump's second term, for "dastardly deeds."

A lot of people can't get past the fact that Acosta is becoming a dead ringer for Rosie O'Donnell.
