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.”

    The main point is that if you are ever putting pressure on NH to change the date on their primary election, then this is the time.

      Except NH state government is all Republican and the only one that can change the law that NH goes first…

      The DNC told NH Dems they had to violate state election laws or lose their delegates.

      That is a giant fucking issue, and something I thought republicans wouldn’t even sink to.

      There’s no choice, and you acting like there was isn’t a good look.

      Did you just not know the details?

      Or do you think the DNC telling a state party to break election laws is no big deal?
