At last year’s Rio Olympics, America fielded its first hijab-wearing Muslim athlete. The fencer, Ibtihaj Muhammad, gained prominence for her religion but stayed visible through a series of anti-American statements. Muhammad may have represented the United States on the world’s biggest stage, but don’t confuse that for a sense of patriotism.
In an interview with The Daily Beast, Muhammad once complained about living in the United States. According to the athlete, she feels ”unsafe” in the US and blames racism for her sense of fear while walking through New York City. When asked about Donald Trump, she said ”I don’t know who that is.”
Despite this, Mohammed was nearly chosen to carry the American flag during the Rio Olympics’ opening ceremonies. In a vote among her peers, she placed second to Michael Phelps. CNN published a piece that claimed Phelps didn’t deserve to carry the flag because, in so many words, he’s a ‘tall, successful, rich, white guy’
It’s unclear whether her fellow athletes were aware of Mohammed’s penchant for anti-American rants when they made their choice.
Watch as Mohammad attacks Trump’s call for a safe America on the next page:
Joshua Wineholt, sounds like you have been brainwashed from the MSM & have believed all the lies that Obama tried to say that there was no domestic terrorism ever happened here in America.
You say “we”. “We” don’t agree with you. Sorry, Princess.
Is she the woman who cheated or lost and is now bitter. Move the hell back to the Middle East stop bitching
She is an American who happens to be a Muslim and seems pretty damn assimilated to me.
Sorry, sweetheart, but you’re a bit too stupid to be equipped for this conversation.
Burn in Hell witch!

There’s plenty of domestic terrorism. It is mostly done by white, Christian males.
