In a new interview out in The Sunday Times, Rep. Ilhan Omar said she believes Tara Reade and that “justice can be delayed, but should never be denied”:

And if it was up to her, Joe Biden would not be the nominee:
Ilhan Omar tells @joshglancy “I do believe [Tara] Reade. Justice can be delayed, but should never be denied.” She adds that if it was up to her, Biden wouldn’t be the candidate. https://t.co/xCax3m5QYK

And, of course, she played the victim:
"I am harassed more than anyone else since Reconstruction, since the Civil War, when we first allowed African-Americans to join Congress”

And President Trump is “probably one of the most racist people in our country”:
Does she view Donald Trump as a fully fledged racist? “I think he’s probably one of the most racist people in our country,” @IlhanMN says. “There’s no sugar-coating it, no ifs or buts, he is racist, he’s xenophobic, he’s a deranged, really sad man.” https://t.co/AATdvJPIjH

So, is she going to vote for the racist or the person she believes sexually assaulted his staffer?
