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.”

    As soon as conservatives got Faux New, neoliberals have been trying to get the same unquestioning support from their voters.

    The issue is if Dem voters wanted that shit, they’d be republicans.

    The people running the DNC don’t understand basic psychology because when they finished their educations, psychology was still pretty new, and the only big studies was shit like Zimbardo that threw out the scientific method and had researchers meddling with experiments to get the desired result.

    Imagine if Verizon hired a guy that stilled used a beeper instead of one of those newfangled mobile phones.

    Sounds ridiculous, right?

    But that’s what we’re doing with politics and psychology
