Pelosi sticks up for her 'squad' after their failed Israel stunt

You'd think someone as savvy as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi would want to distance herself from the failed stunt of two of her squad members, Reps. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib. The pair of them were up to no good in their announced trip to Israel. Far from going there for the reasons normal people go, they wanted to hang out with terrorist-sympathizers and promote an anti-Israel boycott-divest-sanction campaign. The political nature of the trip was exposed by their refusal to go on a pro-offered bipartisan trip to the country, their acceptance of a different trip hosted by terrorist-linked sponsors, and creepiest of all, Tlaib's refusal of an invitation by Israel's prime minister for a humanitarian visa to make that one last trip to see her 90-year-old granny who might not be there for her next time, something Tlaib declined. Those detailed proved the whole trip to be nothing but a political stunt, and not surprisingly, Israel wasn't up for letting them do it on their time.

They tried to damage Israel in other words, but failed miserably because Israel was smarter than them.

Wouldn't that be a good reason to pretend you didn't even know these losers? Not for Nancy Pelosi. According to Fox News:

“Israel’s denial of entry to Congresswomen Tlaib and Omar is a sign of weakness, and beneath the dignity of the great state of Israel," Pelosi said in a press release.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer was even more oily about the whole thing, throwing in that Israel was the bad guy:

Yep, the both of them have been far left for quite some time and enjoy the limelight, they liked being in front of a camera.

When Trump was elected President they really became unhinged and now literally can’t keep their traps shut.

What makes you think it was a failed stunt? They wanted the Israelis to bar them.

At the same time I believe that American Jews are fast approaching the time when many will leave the Dem party because of the blatant antisemitism of the infiltration of radical Muslims in that party.

A few points of contention. The radical muslims did not infiltrate the Dem party they were invited in. Some Jews are already leaving the Dem party due in part to their embrace of open anti-semites. There are those Jews who will vote Dem till the day they die. Much of the last group vote Dem because "Roosevelt saved the Jews", not entirely true but try telling them that, with others still voting Dem because of LBJ's civil rights policy.

This is genius. This should take care of moving a few more Jewish votes from dem to Trump, along with the support of Israel, moving the embassy, freeing the imprisoned business owner, etc.

If the base remains loyal and a good number are moved into the Trump column from the African-Americans, the Jews, the Hispanics and the formerly unemployed or under-employed, and 2020 should be fine. Voter fraud will be the issue.
