Tucker Carlson: "Ilhan Omar has contempt for the United States"

[Absentee Voting Ghost of Ruin]

Oh and there are other anti-Americans in Congress such as Steve King and if Roy Moore won he would have been an Anti-American senator .

Your whataboutism is irrelevant, especially when what they've said isn't comparable, & especially when she isn't even anti-American.

You're tilting at windmills. The real reason the right thinks (and says) Omar is "anti-American" is that:

-she's not white
-she's a woman
-she speaks out against them

All the rest is just excuses.

Remember, when the right-wing says "Anti-American" what they mean is "Anti-Republican".  Because to the Republicans, "America" isn't about a set of ideals, it's about them being in charge. For Republicans, as with their criticism of Omar, all the rest - the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, two centuries of (imperfect) support for freedom,  civil rights, and a better world - are just window dressing for their real agenda: them in charge, forever.  If you want a perfect demonstration, look no farther than Mr. Trump, and how the Republicans have abandoned their positions on everything from Russia to the Constitution in order to support him.

She clearly hates this country. Her way of "making America better" is anti-American hard-leftism.

Do you not see the inherent contradiction in this comment?

If she was really anti-American she would want this country to fail, she wouldn't want to make it better.

Then no1 is anti-american

I want America to cease to exist as a united country. It is not sustainable. I support all secessionist movements.

Even the ones whose motive for secession is the "freedom" to oppress and violate the human rights of some portion of their citizenry?

OSR is still foaming at the mouth over Ilhan Omar? Seriously man get over yourself.

And many leftist posters on here constantly post about idiotic and deplorable comments made by a random Republican State legislator. This is and the AOC thread about Evita Peron proved that you guys are a bunch of HYPOCRITES as well and will defend anything as long as that politician is a left wing populist like AOC and Omar.

Politics needs more people like  President Johnson on the Left and Sunrise on the right(And their are thankfully a good amount of posters on both sides who are like them on here). They actaully are people who are principled , carry more about policy than rhetoric and are willing to call out members of their own "side" .


I am so tired of people on both sides defending obvious terrible comments , or terrible people on their side just because that politican is on their "team".


This is not Sports guys , the Republicans and the Democrats are not some team you are supposed to blindly follow

Allow me to reply with all the seriousness and respect this comment deserves.
