Yes, just like trump.

She’s just using different words to describe the same goal. Why does trump hate America?
Populist words directed at war weary voters, nothing more

I couldn't care less what this lady says, personally. She's not my Representative.

But you don't hesitate to comment on it. She may not say it, but I will tell you what she thinks American Imperialism is to her. The U.S. fighting MUSLIM TERRORIST groups like ISIS and Al Queda is imperialism. OK? She is just fine with Muslim terrorism and innocent people dying.

That’s strange. Never heard that one before.


Being the world police is the lesser of two evils.

In a perfect world, it wouldn't be necessary

But the world isn't perfect........and If we don't do it, then someone else will surely take our place.

And I don't know about you......

But I'd rather be the Police than the policed.

Exactly! This antisemite was the keynote speaker at CAIR, an Islamic organization known for its support of terrorist groups.

Have a great week!
Sure.....but there are also ways they are similar. The intent is to raise disdain for either a group of people, or for the country one was elected to help lead. It's demonization through lies,

I'm beginning to think she's a terrorist plant, to destroy America from the inside. She certainly was happy to speak at an Islamic group with known terrorist ties,

Don't many of you folks want the USA out of other countries around the world?

You want the USA out of other countries and their business. She's saying the SAME thing.

You love America for wanting the USA to get out other countries. She's a refugee hating American for wanting the USA to get out of other countries.

Omar is just a LIAR using false rhetoric to advance her Far Left oppressive, domestic agenda.

Perhaps she was referencing President Trump's stated desire to take over oil fields in other countries.

REd and Blue complain about the USA involvement in other countries. It has been an ongoing discussion for years.

Nothing wrong with protecting the worldwide flow of oil as that creates global STABILTIY. We are not profiting by it, in fact it is COSTING US huge dollars. So if we don't profit, or actually take them over as U.S. property, how is that Imperialism? Not surprised ABC would spin it that way though.
