Contradictions between the words of Democrats and the reality of the world are not especially uncommon. Democrats claim that their reforms will lift people out of poverty, yet statistics and past implementation of left-wing policies prove otherwise. With the 2020 presidential election underway, the new narrative from the Democrats is that the majority of Americans stand behind their far-left policies.
However, in a new turn of events, it appears as though Democrats can’t even keep their story straight amongst themselves. On Thursday, an interview of House Rep. Ilhan Omar aired; in this interview, the congresswoman spoke about the Democrat Party and the manner in which she believes the Democrat Party is perceived.

Breitbart News reports Omar’s claim that “most people can’t understand” what Democrats are fighting for; this particular victimhood narrative comes in spite of left-wing 2020 candidates who assert that most Americans favor what Democrats are campaigning on.
Omar on What Democrats Are Fighting for
The congresswoman’s interview with journalist Mehdi Hasan covers some very interesting ground. Omar’s take on the Democrat Party and the campaigns of Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren showed how disconnected she is from the rest of Americans and that’s really unfortunate.
Despite recently endorsing Sanders’ 2020 presidential campaign, Omar still had glowing remarks for the “Warren-wing” of the Democrat Party.
Per the congresswoman’s own statements, she maintains that the majority of Democrats would fall under the “Warren-wing.” Omar then went on to Democrats care about “details” and view themselves as the “smartest in the room.”
After claiming that most Americans are simply unable to comprehend the gravity of the Democrats’ fight, Omar then praised Warren for having a “plan for everything.”
The Real Reason Why “Most People” Don’t Understand Democrats
The alleged lack of understanding associated with the Democrats is not because they’re advanced or pious. In truth, most people DO “understand” what the Democrats are fighting for; they’re just not on board with it.
Open borders, socialism, higher taxes, and more government each encompass the agenda of the Democrat Party. This is what Democrats are all about and no matter how many times they try to convince themselves that the majority of Americans support them, the facts continue to state otherwise.

If Omar truly believes the Democrat Party is having all these problems, she should ask herself why. The congresswoman would also do well to consider that if most leftists are part of the “Warren wing” of the Democrat Party, this might explain the lack of understanding which she’s complaining about.
