How many times does Ilhan Omar need to apologize for antisemitic statements before I conclude she is either stupid or antisemitic?
2012 -- Omar apologized for not "disavowing the anti-Semitic trope I unknowingly used"
February 2019 - Omar issued an apology stating, "I am grateful for Jewish allies and colleagues who are educating me on the painful history of anti-Semitic tropes"
And yet, she persisted:
On February 27, 2019, Omar spoke at a bookstore and said of her critics, "I want to talk about the political influence in this country that says it is OK for people to push for allegiance to a foreign country." The statements were quickly criticized as allegedly drawing on anti-Semitic tropes of dual loyalty.
