Ilhan Omar being an illegal explains so much

There is strong evidence that Ilhan Omar entered the US illegally. A Somali family, not her family, was granted entry to the US. That family allowed Ilhan, her sister, and her father to pretend to be part of the family which had been granted entry to the US.

At the time Ilhan was a child and hence wasn't responsible for the criminal acts of her father and the adults in the other family.

However she has by now undoubtedly discovered that she is in the US illegally.

That explains why she's so in favor of open borders and welfare for life for anyone who can sneak across the US border; she identifies with them and probably feels a bit guilty for having successfully scammed the US immigration system so that she wants everyone to be able to get away with what she  got away with.

It also probably explains why she hates America so much; after all America didn't invite her in so she feels no gratitude for all the taxpayer funded benefits she's gotten.
