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.”
I don’t understand why people don’t realize that trump is also a Netanyahu ally. They’re old pals.
It’s not like trump winning over Biden would change anything about the US policy on Israel- except probably make it worse, and trump winning over Biden would definitely make things in the US and pretty much everywhere else US policy affects worse.
"Biden does this one thing I don't like, even though his and the US's hands are tied in incalculable and incomprehensibly convoluted agreements, promises, lies, and geopolitical suicide pacts since about 100 years ago.
That's why I will vote Trump, who will officially sanctify everything Israel does, triple their financial aid, strangle a Palestinian baby to death with his bare hands on national TV and then take a massive diarrhea shit on the Oval Office ebenholz desk.
FOR SHAME, BIDEN!"
You're all either bots or you swallowed the right wing/Russian propaganda together with Trumps cum.
It's insane how when someone criticizes anything about Biden, the first move is accusing them of supporting trump, and when they have to clarify trump is obviously worse, everyone then acts like their criticisms of Biden becomes invalid.
Biden is better than trump. But we deserve better than either option.
"Shutting up and voting Biden" doesn't help anything, and is what we give republicans shit for.
No shit. Everyone doing protest votes for the Democratic nominee was just that, a protest. Hell, in NC, Biden was the only option.
Come November, there is no way in hell I would vote for Trump. Biden could come to my house, burn down everything I own, punch a baby, kick a puppy, kiss my Dad, and I would still vote for him.
That's smart. She has to know that things under xtian nationalism would be far worse than under Biden.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
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.
Last month at a press conference, Omar, a strong supporter of a cease-fire in Gaza, accused the Biden administration “of greenlighting the massacre of Palestinians.” She went after the Biden administration for the approval of extra aid to Israel without congressional approval.
“This administration cannot claim to be an honest broker of peace while greenlighting the massacre of Palestinians.
Omar, in the same Tuesday interview, also accused White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan of not sharing the “full picture” when it comes to Gaza cease-fire talks.
“And the fact that they will not do so says a lot to me, about Hamas’s regard for innocent Palestinian civilians,” Sullivan continued.

The fact of the matter is that democrats are betting it all on the least popular president in modern history, who is also an octogenarian. The hope is he will somehow be disliked less than cheetolini.
The problem isn't that democrats are going to vote for Trump. The problem is that polling indicates that Biden is already losing, so every person that decides NOT to vote for him by staying home or voting third party is just another nail in the coffin.
Biden deciding to run for reelection is the presidential politics equivalent of Ginsburg refusing to retire. And it's right there in front of us. And we know it's insane. But now everyone is just knuckling down and buckling up, because here we are.
Given how famously obstinate she is, the fact that even she appreciates the simple reality of the situation should be a wake up call for any people that are still harping on this.
It just doesn't make any sense to be against Israel's actions and at the same time do nothing to stop our own Netanyahu from obtaining power.
It's bizarre to me how there seems to be this contingent of people that don't understand we are in an emergency situation. It's not even "lesser of two evils" anymore it's "the building is in flames, grab the nearest fire extinguisher".
Very mid.
