Rep. Ilhan Omar says she “ran on a promise to end the President’s hateful Muslim ban”. . .

I ran on a promise to end the President’s hateful Muslim ban. And tomorrow we will introduce a bill do just that. No one should be denied basic rights because of their religion, race or national origin. #NoBanAct ✊? — Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) April 9, 2019

. . . So, she “ran on a lie?”

So… you ran on a lie? Were Muslims from Turkey ever banned?

Were Muslims from England ever banned?

Were Muslims from indonesia ever banned? There was never a "Muslim ban" Never. Stop trying to divide. https://t.co/jjRjqOVwMx — Larry O'Connor (@LarryOConnor) April 10, 2019

The least she could do is be honest:

Trump may have wanted a Muslim ban. He didn’t get one. This is pernicious nonsense. https://t.co/CHyyuEtLxM — Jonah Goldberg (@JonahNRO) April 10, 2019

It’s only “fake news” when Trump says it though:

There has never been a “Muslim ban.” There was a moratorium on receiving any immigrants from countries whose security standards were lacking — and said countries were identified under the Obama admin. Countries that improve are removed. It’s hateful to spread fake news. https://t.co/QQFalJxhpn — Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) April 10, 2019

This will probably happen eventually:

Good thing the Travel Ban does none of those things But hey demagogue away

I can't wait to see how you blame the Jews advising Trump for it https://t.co/Y1FIR2xkOL — Jim Hanson (@Uncle_Jimbo) April 10, 2019
