Apparently Omar made a statement apologizing for her past anti-semitism and she and Pelosi hugged on the floor of the House. See, Trump is a unifier. He should get the Nobel Peace Prize.

Bill,
She took an oath to support this country and she violates it daily. She supports al Qaeda and ISIS. She hates Israel. She is America’s enemy.
Fine, but that's a context that needed to be clarified before making the "go back to where you came from" argument.

Tenchu's third rule of partisan politics: Control the context.

Bill, this I agree with:



I still think "go back to where you came from" is racist, though. But I'm not going to pretend that I'm oh-so-victimized because of it, despite how often that phrase is uttered even today.

I'll just call a spade a spade and let it be.

Bill, I thought I should tell you about a dinner conversation I had last night with two friends, both of whom are also Korean.

The subject of "go back to where you came from" came up, and one of my friends said that it WASN'T a racist remark. He of course brought up the context of Ilhan Omar's anti-Americanism.

My other friend and I agreed that she was the way she was, but that Trump's comment still counted as racist.

Go figure.
