In reply to the discussion: Rep. Ilhan Omar Defeats Antone Melton-Meaux, 3 Other Challengers In Primary Election [View all]RhodeIslandOne
(5,042 posts)30. I'm curious as to what that specifically has to do with this particular thread?
I abhor all bigotry and intolerance, including and especially antisemitism.
But I'm not following the specifics as it relates to this primary. I know that a lot of people including the President have called Rep. Omar "un-American" and engaged in very typical anti-Muslim tropes up to and including calling her a terrorist.
I'm in no way saying Omar is the best rep in the House, but it's satisfying those bigoted assholes who troll her Twitter with horrible insults were spanked last night and will be again in November. And whomever poured 4 million bucks into this race is walking away very disappointed.
Thanks in advance.
