I’m probably way too cynical and jaded right now but I honest to god wonder which side benefits more from this story.
Every time this happens Dump's side gains support.
Omar and Boebert are both thrilled with the way this played out. In fact, if they could figure out a way to do this once a month, or so, without it looking staged, they'd both leap at the chance.
Yeah I am sure Omar is just loving this.
This isn't a dog and pony show...stop pretending this stuff is normal.

Oh, stop. I know you are not that ignorant of the way politics works. Politicians love bs like this. It riles up their base, keeps their name in the headlines, etc... Getting re-elected is all about money and name recognition, and events like these help both.

Yeah I bet Omar is just tickled pink...hey there is no such thing as bad publicity right? Sure you are being called a terrorist but its all in good fun!
That **** is going to get someone killed.
Yeah...keep living in the 1980s and pretending things are all the same.
This is not the type of stuff politicians like. Even members of Qberts own party are saying she went too far. This is not her talking about Omar being a socialist/communist...she is fucking calling her a terrorist and insulting her religion. If she started calling the Jews in Congress Kikes would they like it too? Omar did way less and got destroyed for it (rightfully so) by friggin fellow Democrats...even after she apologized! Qbert spit on her, her family, her religion and then doubled down. She did it first on the floor of Congress unprovoked, then got caught on film doing it at a donor event, pretended she apologized then did it again. If you think Omar enjoys that then you are the most White Privileged of all the White Privileges!
This ranks up there with your "teachers arent disrespected" take as one of the dumbest you have put forth around here. I am starting to believe you aren't as smart as I give you credit for. Your lack of awareness on the degree of difference is mindboggling on a level I expect more from losers like Jebbers. We already have one Sicatoka and most people now ignore him for his stupid takes...
If you guys don't understand the distinction, I'm not sure me trying to explain it to you is going to help either.
Of course Omar doesn't love getting called a terrorist, just like I'm sure Boebert doesn't love getting called a Nazi. What they love is the fact that someone is out there talking about them, making them the political enemy, or making them the lightening rod. Why? Cash.
You ever look at the lists of House members and what they've raised in cash donations? Two sets get the money. The leadership and the lightning rods. You think Boebert has raised more money than the rest of Colorado's House members combined because of her legislative record? Same thing for AOC, for Gaetz, etc...
Money makes the world go round in politics, and nothing brings in the cash like the "other side" targeting you.
