But as for Omar, I agree with Trump 100% (I puked a bit in my mouth as I typed that). She’s an America-hating racist that doesn’t appreciate in the least that she was rescued and granted asylum by the U.S.

Telling anyone to go home that has a legal right that is legal there was another ignorant thing statement from Trump.hippiemom = goodness0

Look I understand that even saying the words "I agree with Trump 100%" is triggering. And I don't even mean that in an insulting, "Look at you, you're a triggered snowflake" sort of way. No, I'm serious. If someone told me that they "agree with Trump 100%," I'd be skeptical of that person too. But what I really meant is if Trump wants to get on Omar's case and throw his book of bullshit at her, I'm fine with it. I just don't like her. That doesn't mean I like Trump. He sounded like a racist idiot today for the umpteenth time. But I can dislike him as well as AOC's squad. Believe it or not, it's possible to not be a fanboy or vehement hater of these people in politics. There is a middle ground.

Ledbetterman10 said:Hold on. I was referring to Congresswoman Omar and nobody else. I made no statement saying that I think any immigrants have "real" countries , nor did I say anything about immigrants being or not being a "pure" American. Those are your words .So are "final solution" and "not really citizens." I was referring Omar alone and how she's the epitome of the "American Dream" coming true, and she doesn't even appreciate it. I think she's a racist, self-righteous asshole There's racist assholes in the congress that you don't like right? You probably think the same way about them.

And I get it, she and her AOC squad are minorities fighting for civil liberties and talking about how everything is racist comes with that. But unlike AOC, Omar takes way more of an "America is racist" angle than she does a "Trump is racist" angle...

Well of course. It's by far the most democratic district in the state. They probably hate themselves for being white more than she hates them.
I'm joking there so keep calm. But my real problem with her is she's one of these people that decries absolutely everything as racist. A lot of reverse racism.2000: Camden 1, 2003: Philly, State College, Camden 1, MSG 2, Hershey, 2004: Reading, 2005: Philly, 2006: Camden 1, 2, East Rutherford 1, 2007: Lollapalooza, 2008: Camden 1, Washington D.C., MSG 1, 2, 2009: Philly 1, 2, 3, 4, 2010: Bristol, MSG 2, 2011: PJ20 1, 2, 2012: Made In America, 2013: Brooklyn 2, Philly 2, 2014: Denver, 2015: Global Citizen Festival, 2016: Philly 2, Fenway 1, 2018: Fenway 1, 2, 2021: Sea.
