Wanting peace is now disgraceful? WWJD?
Representative Jim Banks of Indiana seems to think that PTSD is something that only soldiers experience. He tweeted,
She has good reason to feel that as she said when she responded to Banks:
“War doesn’t have a reset button, I learned this lesson at the age of Eight. Lives will be lost, many innocent lives will be lost and the future of generations will be impacted. Let’s call for peace.”
Omar, the first refugee to serve in Congress, fled civil war torn Somalia with her family when she was 8 years old. She lived in a refugee camp for 3 years. But any decent person would agree with her sentiments. This congressman is obviously not a decent person.
That is indicative of the bloodthirsty war cries that are coming out of he supposedly isolationist GOP this week. It makes me feel ill too, mostly that so many people said that Trump wasn't a president who would use the military for personal political advantage. Please. He's a vicious, vengeful conman who will do whatever it takes for him to survive.
The only thing that's holding him back right now is personal cowardice and the mistaken belief that Tucker Carlson represents the thinking in his base.
