Until now, the story of Michigan’s role in the election has centered on Arab Americans’ profound discontent with the Democratic Party over Israel’s relentless devastation of Gaza. The war has left deep emotional wounds.
Israel’s recent military incursion into Lebanon feels like another twist of the knife, intensifying the sense of betrayal and alienation of one of the most critical voting constituencies in the country.
Kamala Harris’s chances of winning the presidency will plummet if she loses Michigan, and current polling shows she and Donald Trump are neck and neck there.
Come November 5, I think we may look back on the weeks after Israel invaded Lebanon as the moment Harris lost significant ground in the race.
Voting for anyone other than Harris guarantees that Netanyahu will go on unchecked.
He already is unchecked. He will remain unchecked. This is the unfortunate, and rather obvious truth. Both parties fund and arm the genocide, and pave international groundwork for it to persist. This has been US foreign policy for decades.
Exactly. So the issue of genocide in Gaza is effectively moot in the 2024 election. Both sides are pro-genocide, so decide your vote on other issues. Trump, of course, is better on exactly none of the issues.
Yep. We should be factual about the differences as there are many and stop focusing with blatant fabrication.
