This drump is what patriotism looks like- you and your deplorables drape yourselves in the flag but will not stand up and fight for American values, will not stand up for American citizens. Will not stand up for what is just and right. You only know selfishness and meanness.

Funny Drump was only concerned about losing his speech time. SAD!

Samirah was born in Chicago, a second-generation Palestinian American[1] whose parents were refugees.[2] His father was separated from the family while Samirah attended middle school when he was barred reentry into the United States.[2] Samirah lived in Jordan as a teenager before returning to the United States in 2009. He earned a bachelor's degree in political science from American University, where, though Muslim, he was a member of the historically Jewish fraternity Sigma Alpha Mu, attracted by the chapter's progressivism and "respect for diversity".[3] He next earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine from the Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine at Boston University.[4] While he attended dental school, Samirah was a member of the Students for Justice in Palestine.[5]
