Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) said policy differences toward Israel between her and President Biden won’t stop her from supporting him in the November general election.
“Of course,” Omar said Tuesday, when asked by CNN’s Abby Phillip on “NewsNight” whether she would vote for Biden if the election were held that day, in a clip highlighted by Mediaite. “Democracy is on the line, we are facing down fascism.”
“And I personally know what my life felt like having Trump as the president of this country, and I know what it felt like for my constituents, and for people around this country and around the world,” Omar continued. “We have to do everything that we can to make sure that does not happen to our country again.”
> You wouldn’t believe how many posts I’ve seen railing against “genocide” go on to claim that Trump would be tougher on Netanyahu. Saw one a couple days ago that even claimed that because Putin is such an ally of Iran and therefore Hamas that he’d be better for the people of Gaza.
you’re right: i don’t believe this. can you link it?

Why am I not surprised it was harderian making such stupid takes?
Hey look, it’s me! I can screenshot deleted comments I can still see (unless that’d get me banned)
But I don’t think that user was actually serious about Trump being better for Gaza – he was trying to set up a gotcha for a point that nobody actually made (about Trump being Putins lapdog).
that doesn’t say what you say it said.
Did you read all the comments?
yea. everyone agrees trump is worse for palestine in that thread

Haha they actually linked a sarcastic comment attacking a liberal line of reasoning and conflated it as a comment supporting trump. They… are beyond help and you couldn’t ask for a better finish
/thread
How does the comment not support Trump? Both lines of reason show Trump in a positive light.
hey you do good work so like… keep it up!
