US Muslim leaders who supported Republican Donald Trump to protest against the Biden administration’s support for Israel’s war on Gaza and attacks on Lebanon have been deeply disappointed by his cabinet picks, they tell Reuters.
“Trump won because of us and we’re not happy with his Secretary of State pick and others,” says Rabiul Chowdhury, a Philadelphia investor who chaired the Abandon Harris campaign in Pennsylvania and co-founded Muslims for Trump. Muslim support for Trump helped him win Michigan and may have factored into other swing state wins, strategists believe.
Hear hear! I mean, how dare they not vote for the democrats? Don’t they know how this works? Do they think the parties are supposed to “earn” their votes by campaigning for policies that will benefit the electorate? That’s fucking childish!
They thought they needed to also earn the majority which supports Israel as well which makes it awful hard to tell the truth and win everyones votes
They did have policies that benefitted the electorate. Lots of them. But I guess when people can’t look at anything but one single issue, and looking poorly I might add, considering that trump was known to be worse by far, it doesn’t matter. But hey, keep blaming anyone but the people responsible for casting their votes. I’m sure it will fix the mess they created by voting with their feelings instead of their reason.
