Where did I excuse Omar? The point was that many on both sides are cheering for their politicians like they would the home team. The people I hear teeing off on Omar are the same trying to excuse away trumps stoopid comments. How tf was that point not clear in the OP?Wow, everyone is proving my point beautifully. Putting words in my mouth, calling me a rabid centrist just because I admit trump says some dumb shit. Hahaha wtf is a rabid centrist anyway? How dare I admit Trump can say some stupid shit, I’m just foaming centrism from the mouth here.Was Omar’s “some people did something,” comments on 9/11 a little too flippant considering the subject matter? Yes, for sure. In conjunction with her other worrying comments and leanancy towards actual ISIS terrorists, it is concerning. But in all honesty, the rights reaction to it does seem inproportionate. To me, this comment is on the same level as Trumps “bad people on both sides comment” during Charlottesville.
They are both cringeworthy comments. Yet, die hard trump supporters gave him a pass, and weren’t at all critical enough. On the other end of the spectrum the left is not only not critical of Omar, they’re actually calling fair criticism of Omar’s comments “incitement of violence”. Which is bat shit crazy.
I truly wish that political commentary and discussion would happen on a higher intellectual level than what is currently is. I want the Sam Harris Vs Ben Shapiro type of debate. Instead, the level of discussion I see is AOC vs Trump. I feel like this just kind of shows you how powerful the dying mainstream media still is. No one is watching, but they seem to still have a good amount of sway over the narrative. The narratives that attract eyes are AOC and Trump.
Lol, there is that rabid centrist shit again. So it’s all good because Trump allegedly did it? If so, then what? Let it slide? The stupid Hani ho has said this shit multiple times since she has been elected. Her words can’t be taken out of context. She said what she feels.
Of course Trump says stupid shit. If it’s not to excuse Omar, then what’s the point, and why so defensive?
There's no need to make excuses for Trump's comments because he was right.
