Hard to believe she is lying...but, if she is lying, that is an awful big risk to take, considering she swore under penalty of perjury in her divorce filing. |
Only the statement of a witness to the press and the statement of Mynett's estranged wife in a sworn deposition. |
That's not really evidence. The witness's credibility can't be evaluated and the Daily Mail is not a very reliable source. Tim Mynett also has a sworn deposition that denies an affair. So depositions are a wash. |
FWIW, I never bring up a politician's religion. I do think it's something to consider when a politician identifies publicly with a certain religion or faith--as Jimmy Carter does. If it's not important to Omar to be identified as a Muslim, then I'll assume that she wouldn't bring it up. |
"tricked him?!" how dumb is he? |
To be fair he was pretty young when he fathered the kid and rightly did not marry her immediately. It was a last chance kid for her and an "oh my god, I am too young for this" kid for him. |
If he's old enough to father a kid, he's old enough to know that he should assume responsibility immediately. That's not being "tricked." |
Are you joking? He was 25. How utterly ridiculous and offensive to imply he didn't know what he was doing in regards to sex and birth control and that some old minx "tricked" him into impregnating her. |
| That marriage sounds like it has been doomed from the start. Just all kinds of bizarre with the large age difference and a kid and getting married when the kid was like 6 or 7? Weirdness |
Look at Omar’s marital history. That is weird. |
She could have easily lied about taking BCP. Maybe she does have a history of lying/manipulation. |
I'm confused. What is your reason for disparaging the wife's character? It would seem that you're attempting to provide cover for Omar at the expense of the wife by offering up stereotypical negative things that some women do. Are you for women? Or just for Ilhan Omar? |

I'd be fascinated to know if this is a man with a boner for Omar, or a woman who is being blatantly hypocritical in treatment of women. |
You mean, disparaging her in the same way others are trashing Omar for possibly having an affair. Why is it ok to disparage Omar but not the ex-wife? |
