Last week we posted on Ilhan Omar’s comments where she threw Obama under the bus, saying that some of his policies were also bad like Trump’s, but that Obama was just more polished or something:
“We can’t be only upset with Trump,” the freshman firebrand told Politico Magazine.
“His policies are bad, but many of the people who came before him also had really bad policies. They just were more polished than he was,” Omar said.
“And that’s not what we should be looking for anymore. We don’t want anybody to get away with murder because they are polished. We want to recognize the actual policies that are behind the pretty face and the smile.”
Well tonight she was asked to clarify her remarks by a reporter on Capitol Hill, who asked “Do you think that President Obama is the same as President Trump?”
Omar responded by suggesting, presumably, that Trump isn’t even human:
Absolutely not! That is silly to even think and equate the two.
One is human. The other is really not.
Here’s the video:
Fox News’ Guerin Hays asks Ilhan Omar about last week's Politico article: “Do you think President Obama is the same as President Trump?”
Omar: “Absolutely not. … One is human the other is not”

At first she denies her comments, which were recorded.
Now she’s suggesting that Trump isn’t even human in comparison with Obama? My this woman has a lot of hate in her heart.
