antimuslim bigotry was the root of that coverage, because media and us politics love to advance it and aren’t a partner in fighting it!  qt @mehdirhasan this retweet by the president will get not even 1% of the coverage that the omar or tlaib tweets that were accused of being antisemitic got. which is yet another reminder that barely anyone in us politics or the media really gives a damn about anti muslim bigotry or islamophobia.
