It's not JUST because she's brown. It's because of all the baseless rumors that the right makes about her, although the reason they start the rumors is because she's brown.
In our Congressional race in Kansas, the Republican candidate's entire campaign was "the Democratic candidate is friends with Omar." I got postcards in the mail every day about Omar, none about the GOP candidate's actual background of policies and nothing really about the actual Democrat incumbent running in our race.
Their strategy was just to show photos of a brown person and hope that was enough. (Thankfully it wasn't. We're the one Kansas blue district.)

Their voters eat that shit up with a spoon and ask for seconds. Education and the worst of them dying off is the only thing that will truly help...

I love how hard Omar triggers Republicans.
