Usually it's a bit more subtle, or enough steps removed that people can pretend it's not so openly monstrous.

Not this time.

Only one cool politician left in the US Congress, and it's partly because she's from the city with the largest Muslim population in the US.

And Muslims have faced decades of mass murder and racist propaganda which presumably influences why American Muslims are more clear-eyed about what politics to support. Is that what it takes for people in the US to have any kind of conviction?

Even before the electoral cycle started, they’ve been going after Bush hard on some trumped up accusations of misuse of campaign funds or something like that. Not unlike what AOC had to deal with briefly - I’m guessing she made some sort of deal with the DNC that Bush didn’t.
