Trump Wins Dearborn Amid Anger over Gaza

... Donald Trump won Dearborn and made significant gains in Hamtramck compared to 2020 amid anger in Arab American and Muslim communities about deaths in Gaza, ...

Nauseous Optimism for Democrats Turns to Despair After Trump Win

... Harris also lost some progressive voters like Jennifer Linzy over the vice president's stance on Israel's war with Hamas. Linzy, 39, left a Phoenix polling station on Tuesday saying she only voted down ballot races.

"This is the first time I've abstained in my entire adult life in a presidential election," said Linzy.

While abortion is an important issue for her, Israel's war in Gaza and the death of Palestinian civilians was her primary issue. "I made the decision this morning," said Linzy. ...

This Jennifer person needs to be slapped. Yes really. Protest votes when there's a fascist running for office? Not everyone has the money to move to another country when things go badly but apparently her privileged brain can't comprehend this.

All Biden had to do was stop sending weapons to a genocidal terrorist state and call for a ceasefire.

That's it.

And he couldn't even be bothered to do that.

And Kamala couldn't be bothered to say she'll do it in January.

So the kids who elected Biden with great hopes for things being better said "screw it, we'll let everything burn."

Maybe if we ever get to vote again we'll have better choices.

So let's hope the Democratic Party gets the message the kids sent loud and clear"

UNCONDITIONALLY SUPPORTING ISRAEL IS A LOSING MOVE.

I hate to say it, but I think Trump has a better chance of bringing peace to that part of the world than any Dem would given the pressures of their base.

Dems are now beholden to naive Hamas-loving fools like Jennifer Linzy (who Palestinian Isis and Iran are happy to exploit) so Dems can't use the only thing that Palestinian Isis and Iran understand, brute and overwhelming force.

Dems will protest when Trump uses that force, and then they will be called out as terrorist-coddlers. So they will lose more than half the voters, and any shot at winning a general election, to placate five percent

So let's hope the Democratic Party gets the message the kids sent loud and clear"

Not for the GOP, it isn't. In fact it's very much a winning strategy. So much so, that they convinced Arab-Americans and Arab-supporters to help get them elected.

So enjoy having them call the shots for the foreseeable future.

Trump will build on his Abraham Accords with Israel and her neighbors, and extend them to a new Peace Agreement in the ME.

He'll prolly have to give Vlad Ukraine, all of it, and tell Nato they are on their own. Not that Nato couldn't handle Russia alone, but it would be very messy.

And Vlad will have to have Iran cut off the various Terrorist Groups that that make the most attacks on Israel.

He can even stay at his own new Hotel in Dubaii if it's finished by the time he signs the new agreement in Jerusalem where he is much loved. He might have even gotten Nuttinyahoo's job if he hadn't gotten his old one back.

Of course, as Policy it's short-sighted and stupid, but hey, so's Donny.

Trump Praised Netanyahu in Call After One of Israel's Worst Attacks (October 25, 2024)
newrepublic.com

... Despite his recent overtures to Muslim and Arab American voters, Donald Trump privately encouraged Benjamin Netanyahu in a phone call earlier this month to "do what you have to do."

The Washington Post reported Friday the former president told the Israeli prime minister that he supported Israel's brutal bombing campaigns in Gaza and Lebanon, according to six anonymous sources. Trump himself has said that he has spoken to Netanyahu at least twice this month, with one phone conversation occurring as recently as Saturday.

According to Senator Lindsey Graham, Trump was especially impressed by Israel expanding its war to Lebanon, and told Netanyahu as much.

"He didn't tell him what to do militarily, but he expressed that he was impressed by the pagers," said Graham, who was on a call with Trump and Netanyahu earlier this month, referring to the Israeli attack on Hezbollah last month that used explosive batteries inside pagers. Those explosions killed dozens and injured more than 3,000.

"He expressed his awe for their military operations and what they have done," Graham added. "He told them, do what you have to do to defend yourself, but we're openly talking about a new Mideast. Trump understands that very much there has to be change with the corrupt Palestinian state."

This would seem to contradict what Trump has said in recent weeks in his overtures to Muslim and Arab American voters. ...

These moron Hamass supporters will rue their stupidity. We call it cutting off one's nose in spite of their face.

I have a lot of Arab friends. They all voted Trump. They are all mad and don't get it - NO president is going to NOT back Israel and least of all Trump.

Arabs saw the immediate enemy. The Biden administration was not changing policy. They were being ignored and not represented by the current administration. They voted for a change of government. The only Viable choice was Trump. If people here get hurt by that they don't care,why should they when they are being ignored anyway.

Trump will be Worse but they rejected, Correctly in my view, a Govt. that was not responding to them at all on matters of life and death.

Trump, Harris? on Palestine they will do Exactly the Same Thing.

Rejecting the Dems so they lost the election was political power by the people in Dearborn even if it harms them, they have been heard.

They had some degree of self determination in a Flawed and Corrupt System.

@#26 ... Arabs saw the immediate enemy. ...

How so?

This is crazy. He's far more pro Israel than any Dem.

That's why it's funny!

Like when Nader's Green Party voters helped elect Dubbya to office who turned around to start a war of aggression and killed 1 million Iraqis to free their oil. Or when Jill Stein's Green Party voters helped elect Trump in 2016 who appointed SCOTUS justices to undo almost a century of progressive legislation through judicial fiat.

Hilarious!

They had some degree of self determination in a Flawed and Corrupt System.

Based on what he has said, they are probably the second group he is coming after so I hope they are happy.

Along those same lines

Mayor of only Muslim-run city in US endorses Trump for election
Amer Ghalib, who leads city in battleground state of Michigan, says the Republican is the right choice', despite disagreements.

This is the same city and mayor that banned the display of gay Pride flags.

It might come as a surprise to ~~Chickens for KFC~~ Queers for Palestine, but Muslims tend to be conservative and, other than the Israel thing, they are the exact type of voters who would support the GOP and oppose all things liberal.

"This is the first time I've abstained in my entire adult life in a presidential election," said Linzy.

I kind of understand how she feels. After this election, I question whether I have the stomach to vote again either. I've pretty much reached the conclusion that the US is too stupid to survive.

The first day of the bombs keep dropping while Trump is President I just hope there's a live camera in Dearborn so he can see the faces of the stupid rodent people who thought that Trump would actually give a damn about them.

Sounds like Hamas is already begging for peace and Qatar is kicking Hamas out.

After Hamas rejection of hostage deal, US asked Qatar to expel the group www.reuters.com

Palestinians dismayed by Trump's win, their leaders urge peace www.reuters.com

Funny how having US leadership that doesn't depend on Islamic terrorist sympathizers to maintain power can achieve certain results.

Of course, what Trump giveth with one hand ... he'll be giving Putin carte blanche to run amok in Europe.

So I guess Europe will have to put on their big-boy pants and figure out if they want to handle Russia now or ten years from now when it is much stronger, since it looks like the GOP will be sabatoging US efforts on that front for the next twelve years (under Hair Furor and two-term President Vance).
