Trump urges Minnesotans to ‘fight back’ against Somali immigrants
President Donald Trump on Thursday continued his long-running attacks on Somalis by urging Minnesotans to “fight back” against the Somali community in the state.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets center on Trump urging Minnesotans to “fight back” against Somali immigrants, and both frame the remarks as attacks on Somalis in Minnesota. NBC News presents the line as part of Trump’s “long-running attacks,” while The Hill’s extract is from an opinion segment that adds “TAKEN OVER” wording and says Trump is being accused of stoking a “race war,” which appears only in that outlet’s framing.
