(29,456 posts)Muslims turned against Bush/Cheney and reliably voted for Democrats -- in 2016 & 2020 many Muslims voted for Bernie Sanders. At the very least they witnessed the biggest humanitarian disaster of the 21st century and they were split because they felt both options were bad but a significant portion voted for Jill Stein who was really the only Presidential candidate with a position on the conflict that matched their interests. I think it was a mistake for any of them to vote for Trump but the Harris campaign's strategy alienated them. They had anti choice Republicans speak at the convention but they shunned pro-Palestinian Muslim Democratic politicians or activists speak at the convention.
I'm looking toward the next primary and hopefully a candidate will have their support as well as the 2028 general election in those swing states.

(8,833 posts)We need to use these sorts of moments as lessons to teach the fucking morons among us that can't see a difference between the two parties.
And Jill Stein's position means little because there was zero fucking chance she could win. Might as well just voted for themselves as a fucking write-in at that point. The only two positions that mattered and would eventually be implemented were Trump's and Harris's. By not voting for Harris, they hockey assisted these policies of Trump.
They own it and we should all point that out to them every miserable step along the way.

(160,760 posts)Donald Trump has a message for voters who disapprove of President Joe Bidens Israel/Gaza policy from the left: The Republican intends to be vastly worse.

The Biden White House, for example, acknowledged this week that it is, as the Associated Press reported, weighing measures to help Palestinians living in the United States who want to bring family from the war-torn region.
Soon after, as Reuters reported, the presumptive GOP nominee shared his thoughts on the subject at a campaign rally.
Your towns and villages will now be accepting people from Gaza and various other places, Trump said, eliciting boos from the crowd. Under no circumstances shall we bring thousands of refugees. Last week, Trump described the pro-Palestinian protests as driven by tremendous hate while asserting that the violence at a 2017 white nationalist rally with some Trump supporters in Charlottesville, Virginia, when he was president was small by comparison.
Note, at one of his campaign events yesterday, Trump appeared to goad his followers in Wisconsin into booing Palestinian refugees.

At the same event, the former president also vowed to restore and expand the Muslim ban he imposed during his first term......
The former president also endorsed ongoing Israeli military operations, saying, We have to let Israel complete their war on terror. Its a horrible thing, but they have to do it. Trump added that Israel must clean out the cancer.
Lets also not forget a New York Times report from March that said top members of Trumps team want to expel Palestinians from Gaza.
Its as if the Republican is going out of his way to alienate voters who, given their frustrations with Bidens policy, might be inclined to give Trump a second look.
TFG will bring back the Muslim ban, give Bibi free reign to bomb and destroy Gaza and expel Palestinians from Gaza so that Jared can build his resorts.
