Summary
Arab Americans who supported Trump in battleground states like Michigan express concerns over his key appointments, particularly pro-Israel figures like Mike Huckabee, Marco Rubio, and Elise Stefanik, who oppose a two-state solution and back Israel’s actions in Gaza.
While some voters hoped Trump would prioritize peace in the Middle East, his picks have fueled unease about his administration’s direction.
Outreach leaders like Massad Boulos, who engaged Arab American communities during Trump’s campaign, have yet to secure roles, leaving some supporters questioning their expectations of Trump’s policies.
he talks about peace, but it’s obvious from the context he means the kind of peace hitler meant: the kind where everyone is dead at the end of the grand all consuming war
I can’t believe those people took Trump seriously. The same guy who literally instated a muslim ban and uses the words arab/muslim/terrorist interchangeably.
The Muslim ban happened during his presidency, which was apparently too long ago for most of the electorate to remember. Honestly, it’s an interesting insight into the workings of our political system. Maybe more presidents that lost their re-election bid should have tried again
the lesson here is “gotdamn is propaganda effective, even to get people to do the absolute dumbest shit”
so start putting out messaging about how… not to be a shitty person where people who aren’t guaranteed to agree with you will see and hear it
