Comment on New Conservative Shot: "We Have The Best Muslim Wamen"
Monarque@wolfballs.com 2 years agoHer qualification was serving in the military as an officer for like 10 years... I mean, this is not bad qualifications or anything, but there are millions of people who have done this, and I do not necessarily think of this as highly qualified.
What is interesting about their push is that to unseat Ilhan Omar they are going to really try to appeal to the Somali community in that Minneapolis district and whatever conservatives remain there. I will tell you what, it is not that many... But, hey, it is a decent enough move.
It would be interesting if Shukri Abdirahman is also from a different Somali tribe which will obligate a huge amount of the Somali-Americans to vote for her over a rival tribeswoman, lol.

True, I agree with you, but it's not what I meant. In her video, her focus was anti-handouts, despite the war, deaths in her family and being a single mom
How refreshing ! Complete opposite of victim culture. She is a good influence on the public, and hopefully has the character/integrity her video shows

Hopefully she is a good leader but ...
To me, the real news is the trend of even the Republicans abandoning the traditional American identity.

Her intro video was 'anti-handout'. Do you know any conservatives campaigning on cutting welfare (other than Ron/Rand). Not since Reagan, I believe.
If she keeps running on this, she's taking the Repub message of late 80s. That's way more traditional than other politicians.
Too early to know who she really is. We will find out in some years, like Crenshaw, Barr, Graham, if she's a RINO

Not a lie -- anti-handout is ... certainly an interesting platform for a Republican to take when running in a part of Minneapolis that I believe has people living on handouts in it.
Honestly, it is a tough battle as is. I am not confident that she will dethrone Ilhan Omar.
