From MSNBC.

During a town hall in Minneapolis on Tuesday, a man charged the podium where Rep. Ilhan Omar was giving remarks, appeared to squirt a liquid at her and was then tackled to the ground by a security guard after a brief struggle.

In a phone interview Tuesday evening with ABC News, President Trump said he hadn’t seen video of the incident and without providing evidence accused Omar of staging the attack.

"I don’t think about her. I think she’s a fraud," Trump said. "She probably had herself sprayed, knowing her."
