Minnesota Democratic Rep.-elect Ilhan Omar is drawing fire for a tweet she posted Tuesday of Vice President Mike Pence along with the words, “Jesus take the wheel!”
Omars headline also included the hashtag #BorderWall. The picture of Pence with his eyes closed was taken during Tuesdays explosive meeting between President Donald Trump, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer on the topic of border wall funding. Along with being a familiar saying to many Christians, the phrase “Jesus Take The Wheel,” is also the name of country superstar Carrie Underwoods first number one song.

The tweet was seen by many as an attack on Pences Christian faith. (RELATED: Laura Ingraham Rips Incoming Far-Left Congresswomen For Stance On Israeli-Palestinian Conflict)

I wonder how this would go if someone mocked this Muslim soon-to-be Congresswoman about her religion? https://t.co/NeR6L8IvrU

I wonder what would happen if Pence made fun of Omars belief in Muhammad? https://t.co/V3FsSbwz8q
