I really don't care about her sexual escapades.
One actually should care about her using campaign funds to pay for her new “boyfriend” to travel along with her. His estranged wife this week alleged that her husband’s affair with Omar has wrecked her marriage. Omar’s campaign has paid boyfriend Tim Mynett, E Street Group more than $220,000. since August 2018, for “consulting, web development, and planning work”. Mr. Mynett has a 13 year old son, while Ms Omar has three young children.
A formal complaint has been filed with the Federal Election Commission against Ms Omar alleging that she used campaign funds to pay for Tim Mynett’s travel expenses to support their “romantic” relationship, unrelated to her job.
Get the popcorn!
If she’s found guilty of “misuse” of campaign funds, she’s a criminal.
Ok, then she AND Trump can both resign. Right? Same crime.
1. Your favorite President has not used campaign funds to have an affair.
2. In fact - he hasn’t even HAD an affair since serving in public office.
3. You’ll have to try harder, my friend. Your hatred is nasty.

If we (validly) call for Duncan Hunter exit, so should she. The right has certainly been gunning for her - but she could have avoided this trap.
Duncun Hunter is being asked to resign because he is under indictment. Omar has not been charged with any crimes. Many posters here are very eager to convict when it is not even clear a crime has been committed.
Sure, don't give her any passes. But, don't makes demands on her that you don't make on others. As has been pointed out in this thread, Joni Ernst was also accused in divorce documents of having an affair. Should she resign as well?

Several of those also had a illegal component involved in their scandals. Even so, Clinton didn't resign and Sanford went on to be elected to Congress. Also, Trump is famous for affairs -- apparently even violating campaign finance laws to pay hush money -- and Duncan Hunter has been indicted in part due to using campaign funds to pay for expenses related to affairs. Both remain in office. I'll repeat, Joni Ernst has had the exact same allegation made about her in divorce papers, yet there are no similar calls for her to suffer "professional consequences". I agree that Omar doesn't deserve a pass, but she also doesn't deserve to be held to a higher standard.

The Michael Cohen indictment does say that the hush money used to cover up Trump's affairs was a campaign finance violation.
I stand by my three statements, but feel free to refute any one of them.
Kudos to President Trump for cleaning up his naughty boy persona of yesteryear. Hateful Libs seem to hate even that. Pathetic.

That’s all that really matters here, and there needs to be an investigation into potential illegal violations of the law.
Didn't she already do that before?
Perhaps more effective consequences are in order if she has repeated the same crimes.
Again, there is no evidence that she has committed a crime in this case. An amazing number of posters have already convicted her. Are any of you familiar with due process?
