I honestly have no idea how any Muslim could vote for Trump unless they were completely ignorant. He is not their friend by any stretch of the imagination. It's not going to end well for them.

It’s not like they weren’t warned.
From the Reuters article on the same topic:
'They will be peaceful when they are dead'
These are not smart people.
Why oh why didn't anyone warn them?
Dumb fucks
What were they expecting? He showed everyone who he was and they still voted for him.
Ahha hahahahahhaa hahahahaaha
Enjoy watching the genocide of your people, you'll be next, so instead of crying crocodile tears why don't you do something PROACTIVE about it.
All the information is on the task card, you have two months, your time starts now.
Oh no! It's the consequence of my actions!
Muslims were scammed in this election for voting for Trump or Jill Stein
were scammed
You spell 'failed critical thinking' with a w. Okay.
that's what musk was selling. to muslims and middle-easterners in michigan harris was a pro-israel, for pennsylvania's jewish population she was pro-palestine. and they were hyper-local with the targeting.. down to individual city blocks.
In the few days leading up to the election I got two texts, definitely crafted to seem like they were from a Harris aligned pac, but it was saying she was unreservedly behind Israel, and seemed off. I told them to fuck the selves and reported as spam
When someone has a dog shit for brains, you do not pity them. You just put them outside, so they don’t stink up the house.
This is just islamophobic. Why not ask white people who overwhelmingly voted for Trump?
Fuckem.
At this point I'm worried about the leopards. Those guys are going to be battling chronic obesity very soon.
At least they'll have access to health care.
Shit, wait.
Oh no, the consequences of my choice!
But compare this post to when they're mad about Anti-Jewish picks:
No shade at any Jewish voters who voted for trump strangely...
It's crazy how many prefer to blame the uncommitted movement, people who fought the hardest to change the Democratic Party's unconditional support for genocide through every democratic channel possible, over the Democratic Party for refusing to change position, at the cost of critical voters in swing states.
I would expect a campaign who's key concern is winning against a fascist to do everything in their power to win as many votes as possible.
You forget why trump is even a thing in national politics...
In 2015 when the primaries happened Hillary's campaign controlled the DNC and pushed for trump because he was the worst possible opponent and they thought it would scare people into voting for Hillary despite her being wildly unpopular.
They're 1 out of 3, but the DNC leadership loves trump because he lets them run even less popular moderates and take bribes from even worse industries/billionaires while still having a 33% chance of winning.
To them, it's a smart bet.
Which is why we shouldn't let them anywhere near the DNC.
They could have easily beat trump, but the want the awful "compromises" they say they have to do to win elections. It's why they keep saying it despite it never helping
Neoliberalism has been dragging this country to Fascism since Democrats went the way of Third Way Politics
This wasn't a no-brainer. There were far more Jewish people who'd tank the election toward Trump and give us this same shit show. The only viable hope was intense pressure afterward. Trump was always far more likely to backstab than Kamala, at least with her there was a chance of stronger pressure than Biden, vs. zero pressure from Trump.
That's not true either. The polls I linked take into consideration votes that would be lost, and it's still a net +6.
For example, 79% of Jewish Americans voted for Harris. Or just shy of 4.6 million voters
25% considered Israel a major policy item. Or just shy of 1.15 million Harris voters.
Looking at how Jewish Americans views on a permanent ceasefire and conditioal military aid, a majority support it
52.5% support withholding military aid compared to 23% to disagree with that decision.
23% of the 1.15 Million that consider Israel a top issue leaves us with 230,000 Jewish Americans.
Even if we assume all of these Jewish Americans are Democrat, which we have no way of confirming one way or the other, let's compare that to the uncommitted movement. Total uncommitted in the Primary was 706,591 (Which may have been undercounted). On average, general turnout is twice that of primary turnout. Which would reflect over 1,400,000 uncommitted votes in the general as an estimate. Considering how widespread anti-genocide sentiment is, I would expect more than that. But it's not like we have any data, other than the current results.
Interesting data, but you also gotta factor in the AIPAC rat-fucking that would work overtime to overturn opinions not just amongst Jewish voters but by exploiting anti-"terrorist" sentiments in general from both parties.There's a lot of political machinery in place that's deeply embedded. Trump would also be piling on with his own campaigning to exploit that.
But we'll never know for certain i guess.
