Remember the "send her back" chant? I liked it.
Everyone seemed to freak out about that, including President Donald Trump, who disavowed it.
That disavowal was one of the few times where I disagree with Trump.
I understand how that could have been a good strategic decision, politically. But I wouldn't have disavowed it. In fact, if I was there, I would have participated in it!
But Fox News, the Daily Wire, President Trump, they all didn't like it! I don't understand.
The chant has been called "xenophobic," "bigoted," "ugly," by the right! Talk about alienation.
Now it might just be me, but I'm starting to think the Squad is surrounded by some kind of forcefield protecting them from excessive criticism. You can't say, "Go back to your country, you ungrateful anti-Semite," without conservatives (not neocons, mind you) saying, "Dude, that's not nice."
I'm sorry, but when Michael Knowles and Donald Trump start snubbing a disgruntled crowd of working Americans who try to unify around the opposition of a notorious West-hating, Jew-hating, Democrat Congresswoman, I start to lose a little faith.
What I'm trying to say is: STOP CONCEDING. The left feeds off of every concession we give. Concessions make it stronger. Ilhan Omar sucks, and she should go back where she came from.
