Is this the route Beto O’Rourke is going to take the focus off of him and his charitable donation issues? Because we feel like it’s maybe not the wisest move:
.@BetoORourke defends @IlhanMN as he campaigns in VA: "This latest incitement to hatred & violence — posting a video, the president, on his own Twitter account, not retweeted, but formulated by his own team… Now her life is in danger or in greater danger than it was before." pic.twitter.com/orhn6PWQV9

So, Beto’s really doing this, huh?
Meh, some guy posted a video about someone.

How are the words “we will never forget”, in reference to 9/11, inciting hatred in any way? This is insanity

And did you notice the way he he accused Donald Trump of inciting “hatred and violence” against Ilhan Omar by capitalizing on her allegedly misrepresented 9/11 terrorist remarks and then turned around and misrepresented Trump’s remarks about MS-13? By pushing the same lie Ilhan Omar pushed? Liberals can do things like that.
Yeah, repeating her words along with images of what she was talking about is "incitement to hatred & violence", but when she tweets this garbage @BetoORourke is okay with it. pic.twitter.com/P3XHYDPldW

We have yet to see him call her out for that.
She is a politician. Her track record so far is one of anti-semitism with ties to Islamic terror. Her statements must be debated in a free society. Maybe it is the freedom you don't like because people are free to disagree with you and your dumb ideas.

But hey, if this is a hill Beto wants to die on, we won’t stop him.
He's increasingly trying to attract attention by saying outlandish things.
It's escalating.
He craves the spotlight a little too much. https://t.co/4bgpgHTdUd

Defending Omar is not a winning campaign strategy
