Omar says Israel policy divisions won’t stop her from supporting Biden in November

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.”

How many are saying they won't vote for Biden, though?

Ahh yes vote for my guy or else you're automatically voting for the other guy.

I can smell the democracy from here.

So, who ARE you voting for, by the way?

Not for Trump. Not for Butcher Biden.

Trunky Trump and Butcher Biden, you say?

Do they have a band?

Edit: HEEEYY! Trunky Trump and The Butcher Bunch! AAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Not trump.

Oh. Anyone specific in mind?

I think I'll write in Ann Anarchy.

Only if I can drink on the job. Hey spell that right, I have a habit to keep here.

Oops, the brain sees what it wants sometimes.

Just donate and I'll cover your ass post election.

I usually donate to organizations that work on voting access. Under the idea that more voting generally helps the system work away from extremism.

You still didn't answer the question. I guess you must have fallen asleep, or you'd have a solid comeback.

Because I haven't figured it out yet. I only know who I'm not voting for.
