He responds to ongoing controversy about remarks by Rep. Ilhan Omar.

President Donald Trump has “no moral authority“ to talk about 9/11, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler said Sunday.

“He stole $150,000 from some small businessperson who could have used it to help rehabilitate himself. And that's why we appropriated it, why I got Congress to appropriate that money,” Nadler said on “State of the Union” on CNN. “To use it for his own small business of 40 Wall Street, he has no moral authority to be talking about 9/11 at all.”Nadler was referencing how Trump‘s company accepted post-9/11 funding for a building that had not sustained any damage.

Trump targeted Ilhan Omar last week for comments she made about discrimination of Muslim Americans after 9/11. Conservative pundits latched on to one portion of Omar’s comments — in which she referred to the attacks by saying that “somebody did something“ — to argue that Omar was minimizing tremendous human loss.

He thinks of more than 'some people did something.'

And nadler Hasn’t done anything important since he played the penguin on Batman

9/11 is like Pearl Harbor...any politician who somehow degrades the memory or importance of either deserves our universal condemnation...that’s just the way it is...

Who made this waste of a congress person the issuer of moral authority?

Is Nadler for real?

Epitome of irony...when the immoral start complaining that someone else is immoral 😳😒😤

Everything Trump has said about 9/11 are filled with lies. From his claim of Muslims cheering in Jersey City. To his lies about damage to his building in lower Manhattan.There was no damage. We also recall how the air quality was claim to be clean it was’t, need to ask Giuliani

You are hardly the guy qualified to hold forth on moral authority !

Trump has no 'moral' anything. Full stop.

Trump is morally bankrupt.

Trump is from NY. Believe he's entitled to say what he likes.

Oh really? And who does ? You? 😂😂

Americans do and we don't what she said (Period) Spin, Spin, when she really just needs to apologize. She hurt a lot of people feeling and our American Pride when we know it was some people did something. Say what you want in defense. She still hurt a lot of people. APOLOGIZE

Says the lifelong politician.

Trump has no moral authority to be president.

RepJerryNadler realDonaldTrump ....Nadler you are a coward. Our country should come first before your personal grudges. You are being more supportive of a congresswoman that cares more for Sharia law than America. Get your priorities straight!

'Nadler said he didn’t have a problem with Omar’s remarks'. What would Rep. Nadler say if a conservative were to have remarked 'some guy did something' to describe the Christchurch shooting?

This dude looks like a real life bobblehead doll

Nadler continues to prove what a flake he is. A political hack who immediately became overwhelmed with his new found power and name recognition.

Trump arranged a group to look for survivors and paid them. What was Nadler doing to help 9/11 victims?

Nadler can go pound sand. Another hack that needs to go.

RepJerryNadler is a clown!

That's right, because free speech is the doctrine of fascism and only the anti american Puritans get to decide who speaks about 9/11

Trump was at ground zero feeding and giving people money for homes, expenses etc while you were being a jerk off.

Your mistaken..I specifically heard him talking about 'being down at 7/11'

Democrats having to defend that terrorist sympathizer is saddest thing.

9|11 is the phone number for summoning police officers in all 50 states cellphones

Someone wanna remind Nadler that Trump has NO MORALS to talk about anything. K. Thanks. Bye.

No moral authority on anything ... period. NOTHING

Donny has no moral authority to talk about anything.

lifelong politicians talking about 'moral authority' always makes me laugh
