Not unrelated, I read a little blurb in an article that said that the Somali tradition is to name the son after the father. It then pointed out that Omar's father's name is/was "Elmi." And her current husband's first name is- you guessed it- Elmi. This was educational for me because I did not know that there were any of them who were not name Mohammed Mohammed. Funny shiite, dat. Also, for bonus reading and shiites and giggles, wrap your mind around the "coincidental" birthdates in school and marriage records of a person by the same name of her husband. And classmates allegedly state that the kids father was the same person who Omar identifies as her father. The plot sickens. https://pjmedia.com/davidsteinberg/...that-rep-ilhan-omar-d-mn-married-her-brother/
Why would you give them legitimacy? If someone threw such a wild accusation my way, I wouldn't give them the time of day. Or what, you think birthers/Trump dropped the issue after Obama produced his certificate?
I sure as hell would. Especially if I was in Congress and I knew it was false. Then I'd milk it for all it was worth and use it to my advantage. Throw it right back at em in a big way, paint them for what they are, and get tons of free press along the way. If you think about it, it completely furthers the cause for which she is so outspoken. Brilliant and strategic political play. Weak deflection. Try to stay on topic.
Seems obvious yet she doesn't do it. You have to wonder why not. Of course, we both know the answer is because she doesn't have to and the media have already started hissing at anyone who raises it. The only reason it came up now is that she touched the third rail of politics, ie she criticized jewish influence, so they gave her a taste of what she could expect if she didn't get back in line.
Warren has to resort to dna games because she had no supporting records. Omar has the opposite problem. She is aggressively trying to hide records or speak to obvious issues on the record. Believe me, if the circumstances were different, where Omar was not married to him but he was some billionaire mid-easterner who died and she wanted to claim as an heir so she had to prove that he was her brother- she could be there instantly with the existing records. Instead, she is trying to tamp them down. And since the lefty media knows that that is what she wants, then, of course, that is what they want too.
He even pushed his own base under the bus. keep eating his shit. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/18/us/politics/ilhan-omar-donald-trump.html WASHINGTON — President Trump on Thursday disavowed the “send her back” chant that broke out at his re-election rally Wednesday night when he railed against a Somali-born congresswoman, as Republicans in Congress rushed to distance themselves and their party from the ugly refrain. Mr. Trump said he was “not happy” with the chant, directed at Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, a hijab-wearing freshman Democrat whom the president has singled out repeatedly for verbal excoriation. On Thursday he claimed that he had tried to cut off the chant, an assertion contradicted by video of the event. Asked why he did not stop it, Mr. Trump said, “I think I did — I started speaking very quickly.” In fact, as the crowd roared “send her back,” Mr. Trump looked around silently and paused as the scene unfolded in front of him, doing nothing to halt the chorus. “I was not happy with it,” Mr. Trump said on Thursday at the White House. “I disagree with it.” “I didn’t say that,” he added. “They did.”
Take the power from the loons by not entertaining their ideas. Warren proved she had some Indian DNA, the opponents ran with it for not being enough. Obama produced his certificate. The opponents called it photoshopped, and wanted the long form. Trump just ignores stuff by calling it crazy and shit rolls off his back, unless you know, you gotta obstruct Justice to make it go away. He never produces shit unless under subpoena, and it works for him.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But you completely miss my point H4. Look, the sh*t is getting nasty. She just called Trump a Fascist in some interview earlier today. My point being.... if its not true... its political gold. The kind of stuff that Steve Bannon, were he her advisor, would know exactly how to parlay into shaming the right and making her look like some kind of congressional savant.
