It requires a certain amount of insanity to defend an antisemitic, anti-American bigot like Ilhan Omar.
The Squad has it.
And, for the record, Democratic Virginia Delegate Ibraheem Samirah has it, too:
.@IlhanMN is more patriotic to America than any R or D criticizing her. We have to hold ourselves and Israel, our closest ally, responsible for crimes just as we hold other gov't/actors accountable for crimes. It's how we reconcile our past with our present and grow as a nation.

Samirah is also a dentist. Easy access to nitrous oxide could potentially explain a take like that.

The simpler explanation, of course, is that Samirah is just an idiot.
LOL!

I'm really proud of you, not everyone is willing to just come out and admit they're a moron

If he were our dentist, we’d look for a new one. We don’t want someone that crazy and stupid responsible for our oral health.

You need to re-examine the definition of patriotic.

If so, then she hides it extremely well. I have yet to see her do or hear her say anything even remotely patriotic. Unless of course one considers equating the US to Hamas and the Taliban to be patriotic.

C’mon, Doc.
FYI, when your door knockers were going around, this is why a bunch of us said we're not voting for you.
Just thought you should know.
Good riddance. https://t.co/KfebKMGCKx

Tell me you hate the United States without actually saying you hate the United States.

And Jews. Don’t forget about Jews.
No she's not, you disgusting and reprehensible person. Go peddle your love of anti-Semitism somewhere else.
