Ooops now she's done it, she's said bad words about a black person, she is now a per se racist. Obama had no comment when asked about Omar's attack on him.
Rookie Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar, fresh off igniting an intra-party uproar with comments widely viewed as anti-Semitic, took a swipe at former President Barack Obama, saying in an explosive interview the 44th president's message of "hope and change" was a "mirage" and blasting his administration's drone and border detention policies.
“Recalling the ‘caging of kids’ at the U.S.-Mexico border and the ‘droning of Muslim countries around the world’ on Obama’s watch," Omar charged that Obama "operated within the same fundamentally broken framework as his Republican successor,” the piece reads.
Omar is then quoted as saying: “We can’t be only upset with Trump… His policies are bad, but Obama also had really bad policies that murdered Muslims. They just were more polished than he was.
“And that’s not what we should be looking for anymore. We don’t want anybody to get away with murder because they are polished. We want to recognize the actual policies that are behind the pretty face and fake smile.”
