Issa criticized former President Barack Obama\u2019s lenient treatment of Antifa and claimed that the former president\u2019s failed handling had much to do with the recent riots. Campa-Najjar immediately proceeded to make it about race and refused to acknowledge Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Issa showed his gratitude for President Trump&#8217;s endorsement, stating &#8220;Thank you, Mr. President!
