Rep. Ilhan Omar rips Barack Obama, says he's a 'pretty face' who got 'away with murder'
The first-term lawmaker said presidents before Trump had 'really bad policies' and cited the Obama administration drone attacks which were meant to take out terrorists.
Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar has once again landed herself in controversy just days after her comments prompted a House vote condemning anti-Semitism. This time, she has claimed a reporter "misquoted" her criticizing former president Barack Obama. However, audio footage from the interview released by her Twitter account backfired badly as it appeared to verify the report's accuracy.
In a conversation with Politico Magazine, 37-year-old Omar claimed that while she is significantly critical of President Trump's initiatives, former President Obama has walked away unscathed from the ramifications of his own "bad policies" because he was "polished" and had a "pretty face," Daily Mail reports.
