A couple of days ago Ilhan Omar tweeted a list defining herself that many noticed was missing something incredibly important:
I am,
Hijabi
Muslim
Black
Foreign born
Refugee
SomaliEasily triggering conservatives, Right wing bloggers, anti Muslim bigots, tinfoil conspiracy theorists, birthers, pay me a 💵 to bash Muslims fraudsters, pro-occupation groups and every single xenophobe since 2016 😆 pic.twitter.com/SffIqUT32I

What exactly is she missing?
Her Republican challenger Dalia al-Aqidi noticed what she was missing and responded like a champion:
I am an American 🇺🇸
That’s why I’m running for Congress.#MN05 https://t.co/PoLimqIHoV

Boom!
But Aqidi wasn’t the only one to notice it. Ted Cruz saw it and responded as well:
More than a little odd that “American” doesn’t make the list. Wonder why? She is a sitting member of the US Congress. But, in today’s Leftist world of intersectionality, “American” is deemed embarrassing & gauche. https://t.co/8cNGac9X0f

Leaving ‘American’ out of her list was no accident. Many on the left hate America as it is and Omar is no different. After all, she’s a socialist just like Bernie and AOC. They won’t truly love America until they succeed in transforming it into their socialist nightmare.
