Donald Trump called me “crooked as hell” as he spread lies about the fraud that occurred in Minnesota. Any keen observer will recognize the pattern of inciting hostility against me and the Somali community whenever his own failures and corruption catches up to him. He routinely reaches for the same tired playbook of lies, racism and deflection.
This is not a new strategy. Lyndon B Johnson once said: “If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.” This is exactly what Trump’s doing: demonizing Black and brown people so that we pay less attention to him picking our pockets in broad daylight. He uses fraud as a political cudgel while protecting his donor base and enriching himself.
Accuse someone else of exactly what it is that you’re doing. In this case, the “No, look over there!” defence.
The piece itself is terribly boring. In fact, surprised that The G published it. Except that they did tells us something interesting about The G. We all know that they’re trying to become a US newspaper. A global English language one indeed. But this does mean that they’ve got editorial staff doing editorial things in different countries. With different views.
Here the US side is clearly running with the more extreme end of the D Party. And doing so fairly nakedly. There’s nothing in this that is relevatory or even interesting – it’s a straight piece of party political positioning. But it gets published which is that commentary upon the editorial position.
Graun readers will neither mind nor notice.
It only confirms their narriw and petty minded worldview.
He’d find it harder to ‘demonise black and brown people’ if they were law abiding and not up to their necks in fraud, love. Just saying.
‘If you can convince the lowest BLACK man he’s better than the best white man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket.’
There!!! That fixes that one.
Not surprisingly, she doesn’t mention that she’s under investigation by the DOJ for immigration fraud. There seems to be evidence now that the man she divorced her husband to marry was actually her brother, in an attempt to get the brother US citizenship. When sufficient time had passed she divorced him and moved on to husband number three.
She is “crooked as hell” and so is her worthless, grifting “community”.
The Dems are deluding themselves in to believing that they will automatically win the mid terms in November because that’s the way of the US election cycle. If they carry on letting The Squad make their political case they are going to be in for a big shock.
I think we should lear from this article – as quality learing center shows us.
Ilhan Omar married her own brother to get into the US in the first place. She’s part of a Somali diaspora that causes chaos and misery wherever it goes, and when it doesn’t go anywhere causes chaos and misery in Somalia.
A check in the Internet reveals many sites saying that is incorrect and none with any evidence for it. What evidence do you have?
Somebody remind me please, which party did this racist bastard LBJ belong to?
Noticing brown people comitting fraud is racism innit.
In fact, surprised that The G published it.
Gamecock’s hypothesis is Guardian is not a business, it’s a hobby. Hence, no reason to pay for editorial staff. That would explain all the poorly written, gossipy girl talk that is published.
Being printed in it is a status symbol for metropolitan lefties.
They could actually get people to pay to write for it (although only the ones with inherited wealth or rich husbands could afford to do so, of course)
