Quite honestly, the GOP is going to make a fuss about something. If they want to waste news cycles on a comment made by a junior member of congress, so be it. The issue isn't going to switch alot of voters. Heck, the party made an issue out of a tan suit for good god's sake. They'll always find something. In the end, the only thing that's really going to matter is the candidate themselves and this noise will be nothing more than fodder for the news channels.

Rep Omar could have a photo op of her posing with a child, a pony, and a unicorn, all munching on cotton candy, and with fluffy clouds and rainbows in the background, and the republicans would take issue with it. Ponies munching on cotton candy? How stupid could this Somalian terrorist be? Does she hate ponies? And is that an American pony or a Islamic terrorist pony? What's under that pony's blanket? And that gay symbol in the background? Is she a secret gay lesbo?

She isn't going to make any friends. Nor is AOC. And maybe Speaker Pelosi could find a way to channel their energy and their tendency to generate some degree of chaos, even if they are talking about the weather. But if not, so be it.

we have had firebrand Senators and Congress People before and we will have more in the future.

Please read these persons full statements before judging them.

We all have seen similar before. The Right Wing Echo Chamber once again created a bogey man scenario in order to spread brown skin hatred.

simple politics of it and how Democrats can and should be better at it.

We need to make them pay for their indifference at the polls.
