Saw this and thought it was funny that the GOP wanted to censure her for speaking her mind about Israel. Want to know if they will now do the same thing over her saying these thing about Obama lol.
And FWIW I know a lot of people who think the same things about Obama who are black Democrats. This is a common view of Obama by a lot of people. Especially in regards to the drone bombing he did.

Some people will put their Race first, some ethnic group, some country, some political party, some Religion. In her case its Religion.
In your case, its your race and support of a foreign country.
I wonder why the Democrat party has become so fractured during the Trump Presidency.

The reality is the two-party system is not reflective of American political views. And realistically, there is no reason you would expect an overly-simplistic two-party system to cover all political opinion.
Hell - three parties isn't even close to being representative.
The two-party system has been in need of an overhaul for a very long time.

It's fascinating for Americans to see foriegn views on their country for the first time.
This opinions expressed by Omar are common in Asia, Latin America, and Africa.
I'm warning you pknopp, there are to ways this can end.
Either she is kicked out and is no longer a political feasible candidate, or she sells out like AOC.
Don't expect a politician to come and save the day.
