Ilhan Omar has responded to the new “Conservative Squad” of four Republican women running for Congress and vowing to combat socialism.
Omar responded to a tweet from Justice Democrats, the group behind her fellow squad member AOC and wrote “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”

Justice Democrats, the group who backed AOC’s run had been less vague and wrote “This is embarrassing. Please get help.”
Other liberals fired similar snark at the conservative ladies and attacked them for being white. Adam Best wrote:
Glad to see that the Conservative Squad has a brunette member instead of being four blondes. Diversity!

Emma Vigeland called the conservative squad “a case study in nonexistent self awareness.”

Conservatives are taking the opposite stance.
Conservative Squad! Powerful women standing up for Americans.

Conservative Squad Members Nancy Mace, Beth Van Duyne, and Jessica Taylor are all active on Twitter.
I’m worried about the direction our country is headed. Democrats have taken a sharp left turn and attack the very things that make our country great. This is socialism vs. American values of freedom and job creation. Ppl flourish under freedom. #ConservativeSquad #BeatSocialism pic.twitter.com/Gxvu4vbtgt
