President Donald Trump ripped into Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., again on Tuesday, calling her an “anti-Semite,” “who hates Israel and all Jewish people.”

His comments came in a Tuesday tweet after Tlaib and Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., had criticized Israel for denying them entry to the Jewish state. Israel later relented and said Tlaib could visit her grandmother in the West Bank.

But an emotional Tlaib said her grandmother told her not to come under what was considered humiliating circumstances.

However, Trump said: “Sorry, I don’t buy Rep. Tlaib’s tears. I have watched her violence, craziness and, most importantly, WORDS, for far too long. Now tears? She hates Israel and all Jewish people. She is an anti-Semite. She and her 3 friends are the new face of the Democrat Party. Live with it!”
