When the socialist-communist Democrats go anti-Semitic, they go all in. The latest Democrat to defend the anti-Semite Omar is Jim Clyburn of South Carolina. This idiot actually had the nerve to compared what Ilhan Omar is going through now (being exposed as an anti-Semite) to children of Holocaust survivors. Clyburn even thinks what Omar is going through now with all the backlash and criticism is “more personal” than what children of Holocaust survivors had to go through.
WHAT?!?!?

Democratic Whip Clyburn on Ilhan Omar's experience in refugee camp: "There are people who tell me, ‘Well, my parents are Holocaust survivors.’ ‘My parents did this.’ It’s more personal with her." https://t.co/GAbSnXg5op pic.twitter.com/xkMG0wKqvG

The Hill reported, “Clyburn came to Omar’s defense Wednesday, lamenting that many of the media reports surrounding the recent controversy have omitted mentioning that Omar, who was born in Somalia, had to flee the country to escape violence and spent four years in a Kenyan refugee camp before coming to the United States.”
The article then quoted him saying, “I’m serious about that. There are people who tell me, ‘Well, my parents are Holocaust survivors.’ ‘My parents did this.’ It’s more personal with her. I’ve talked to her, and I can tell you she is living through a lot of pain.”
A resolution condemning anti-Semitism was scheduled to take place on Wednesday, but it was delayed. The text of the resolution did not mention her by name. There have been reports that additional language condemning Islamophobia would be added and Clyburn confirmed that.
