Summary

In Wayne County, Arab American precincts rejected Kamala Harris, with Biden receiving 82% of the vote in 2020 and Harris only 23% in 2024.

Trump’s outreach to Arab American and Muslim communities, including visits to Dearborn and Hamtramck, contributed to his increased support.

Harris’s performance in Dearborn, where she received only 13% of the vote in the south end, reflects the backlash against Biden’s handling of foreign policy in the Middle East.

    There’s genociding the West Bank as well as Gaza, as currently suggested now that Trump has won. You might not see a difference between 40% and 100%, but your joint winners Netanyahu and Trump do. You sure showed Harris there.

      You think they weren’t fucking up the West Bank already? You haven’t been paying attention.

        You can’t even bring yourself to admit that the announcement of extending the kind of carpet bombing we’ve seen in Gaza to the West Bank is a bad thing.

          Of course that would be a bad thing. Are we really at the point where we have to declare that bad things are bad things? But the Biden administration would have greenlit it too as long as Bibi said there was Hamas there.

            Yes, sorry, you’re right, every piece of bad news about Trump is actually about Harris. My mistake.
