Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) said policy differences toward Israel between her and President Biden won’t stop her from supporting him in the November general election.

“Of course,” Omar said Tuesday, when asked by CNN’s Abby Phillip on “NewsNight” whether she would vote for Biden if the election were held that day, in a clip highlighted by Mediaite. “Democracy is on the line, we are facing down fascism.”

“And I personally know what my life felt like having Trump as the president of this country, and I know what it felt like for my constituents, and for people around this country and around the world,” Omar continued. “We have to do everything that we can to make sure that does not happen to our country again.”

        Weird.

        Looks like you just make pro genocide comments and get super down voted for it.

        So still makes since why you’re upset with me. I do spend a lot of time pointing out how we shouldn’t be spending billions a year so another country can do a genocide.

        Congrats on finally have some comments with a positive score tho!

        Doesn’t look like it happens often
