Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) said policy differences toward Israel between her and President Biden won’t stop her from supporting him in the November general election.

“Of course,” Omar said Tuesday, when asked by CNN’s Abby Phillip on “NewsNight” whether she would vote for Biden if the election were held that day, in a clip highlighted by Mediaite. “Democracy is on the line, we are facing down fascism.”

“And I personally know what my life felt like having Trump as the president of this country, and I know what it felt like for my constituents, and for people around this country and around the world,” Omar continued. “We have to do everything that we can to make sure that does not happen to our country again.”

    If the weatherman says a tornado is going to hit your town tomorrow, would you start getting upset at them for causing a tornado?

    Or would you be appreciative that someone gave you a heads up while there’s still time?

    Because I see a lot of people frantically ringing alarm bells. For years at this point.

    The primary still isn’t over despite the DNC pulling delegates from NH.

    There’s still time to not run Biden. And I know that’s unlikely.

    But there’s still also time to make noise and hope Biden and the DNC sees reason and move left so trump doesn’t win

    But telling people:

    Shut up and vote Biden

    Isn’t going to get Biden enough votes to beat trump. He’s sitting at less than 1/3 approval with voters…

    We can’t just stick our heads in the sand and hope that’s enough.

    If you want to be sure we beat Trump, start making noise and praying Biden actually listens.

    • I continue to believe polls have been less and less accurate and for the last several elections, special, midterm, and general, or so, polls have been completing meaningless. It’s obvious to me that respondents in recent years simply lying to pollsters.
