Congresswoman Omar slams former President Obama in Politico interview, She under fire again
Rep. Ilhan Omar told Politico that the Obama administration was responsible for the “caging of kids” at the U.S.-Mexico border, the “droning of countries around the world,” and that the 44th president “operated within the same fundamentally broken framework as his Republican successor."
“We can’t be only upset with Trump. … His policies are bad, but many of the people who came before him also had really bad policies. They just were more polished than he was,” Omar is quoted as saying in the article. “And that’s not what we should be looking for anymore. We don’t want anybody to get away with murder because they are polished. We want to recognize the actual policies that are behind the pretty face and the smile.”
Ilhan Omar is so crazy that she even went after Obama for probably the only good thing he did as president – kill terrorists!!!
From the New York Post:
“We can’t be only upset with Trump,” the freshman firebrand told Politico Magazine.“His policies are bad, but many of the people who came before him also had really bad policies. They just were more polished than he was,” Omar said.“And that’s not what we should be looking for anymore. We don’t want anybody to get away with murder because they are polished. We want to recognize the actual policies that are behind the pretty face and the smile.”
Wow.
Aaaaand then she got slapped down by the journalist who wrote it up:

If these freshmen democrat congress-morons were half as bright as they are extremist, they wouldn’t keep getting into these messes.
