Joe Scarborough defended Rep. Ilhan Omar Friday morning by way of declaring the “absolute hypocrisy” on display by way of the Republican caucus in gentle of former President Donald Trump’s previous comments.
At problem was a House vote to eliminate her from the International Affairs Committee, which Congressional Republicans pushed over her anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, and in any other case controversial feedback from the previous couple of years.
The Morning Joe segment opened with a fiery security of Omar from her Democratic colleagues, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rep. Dean Phillips, from the House floor, both of whom noted numerous examples of prior feedback and moves of Congressional Republicans that some may say were far worse than the tropes stated by Omar for which she has claimed lack of knowledge and apologized.
“It’s the sort of great point by AOC,” Scarborough opened. “She if truth be told had some (Gosar) threatening her life, glorifying a picture of her getting her head chopped off in a cartoon. Then you definately go down the MTG things, the killing, the decapitating — neatly, the — all of the different issues, and the distance lasers financed with the aid of Jewish households. Of course, of course, she’s conserving a gun. I feel it was once an AR-15 in an advert …stated that she needed to go on the offensive in opposition to the squad. There was a picture of Ilhan Omar, AOC.”
“I imply, it actually is — once more, the hypocrisy is actually, completely crazy,” Scarborough endured. “I will say Congresswoman Omar made a few statements that were thought to be anti-Semitic. She apologized for them. I must say, they without a doubt were no worse, and I would say a ways much less egregious than what we hear from Donald Trump, what we hear from Donald Trump’s dinner company, what we’ve been listening to from the Republican party over the last 5, six years. What we saw popping out of Charlottesville. This is not a detailed call.”
“It’s no longer a detailed name,” visitor Michael Steele agreed. “In fact, while you step again and take a look at the egregious habits of Republicans like Taylor Greene. No longer most effective, you know, threatening with weapons, showing these photography, however attending rallies with Mr. Fuentes, identified, recognized Nazi.”
