Arab American precincts in Wayne County rejected Kamala Harris
Donald Trump won in the eastern part of Dearborn while Kamala Harris won in the western part of the city.
Summary
In Wayne County, Arab American precincts rejected Kamala Harris, with Biden receiving 82% of the vote in 2020 and Harris only 23% in 2024.
Trump’s outreach to Arab American and Muslim communities, including visits to Dearborn and Hamtramck, contributed to his increased support.
Harris’s performance in Dearborn, where she received only 13% of the vote in the south end, reflects the backlash against Biden’s handling of foreign policy in the Middle East.
they only care about themselves, and their misguided belief that they are 'doing the right thing' and 'paying back' biden.
if they cared at all about gaza, about the west bank, about palestine and its people, they would have come out in force, and in support of democrats from coast to coast. anything to prevent another trump presidency.
trump was never on their side and will let israel do whatever they want.
just like he'll let russia do whatever they want and ukraine will cease to exist. protest votes, like those in michigan, helped doom ukraine, too.
Agreed on all but one point:
Ukraine won’t cease to exist. They’ll just fulfill their threat to execute a crash nuclear weapons development program, if that truly becomes their only option.
Harris could've fixed that by promising not to blow up Palestine. This is purely on her and Biden for being unelectable, not on people refusing to vote for someone who will wipe them out
not on people refusing to vote for someone who will wipe them out
Man I totally forgot Trump is actually a peace loving, human-rights respecting person and totally won't give Israel a blank check. Can't wait for the news article about how Trump's totally gonna get Israel to stop!
Good thing we didn't vote in BlUe MagA right guys?
Do you see it yet?
Harris refused to take a stand against Israel so why should they vote for her?
Why are they selfish? Because they didn't vote how YOU wanted? Who's being selfish here?
Too many people in this thread think they know better about the average voter. Most Americans don’t actually give a shit about politics. It’s getting them to care is the problem. Most people in the USA are too fucking stupid for their own good. Most of the people in this thread are too sensitive to realize they are part of the problem. Arab Americans aren’t directly responsible for Trump’s win but they contributed to it by holding out their votes on a single issue. If both candidates were literally the same as each other besides their stance on Gaza then I can see the logic of not voting for one over the other or abstaining. This was not the case. Most of you trying to act like Harris should have come out and promise to personally stop the genocide don’t realize that the Jewish population in America controls more money, power and influence than the Arab vote. So both sides are going to go out of their way to support Israel. You pearl clutchers don’t get this.
And yet Trump was the man Netanyahu wanted. Why in the world wouldn't that be their sign. Oh, I guess to be fair it doesn't rhyme, so it was probably hard for you guys to understand.
I'm not going to laugh if trump starts deporting Muslims - including those here legally... but I probably won't feel too bad about it either.

L*berals will see literal genocide and say "this is ok bc they deserve it for not voting blue no matter who"
I'll feel bad, along with when they come for all the other immigrant groups who voted for Trump, and eventually for the rest of us.
Now is the time to build coalitions, and work together to confront what is coming.
We keep talking about how to "get through" to voters...
Well, cold reality is a very effective tool, and many people will be regretting their choices in the coming days. We'd be stupid to turn them away instead of showing them we believe in the same core values.

Turns out war crimes dont win votes.
I'll be watching how this bold strategy plays out in Gaza.
Oh, this is a shocking turn of events.
To clarify, this is not a new quote. However, this is the new Ambassador to Israel, I'm given to understand.
Shit, theyre gonna start bombing gaza and murdering women and children when Trumps inaugurated
There is no higher level of Genocide. The worst is already happening. Get the fuck out with this bad faith take.
Democrats told them to shut up about it. So they did...
I don't know many things but the voters are obviously to blame. We drew 100 different trolley problems and told them democracy and women's rights were on the line. We even had Bill Clinton logically explain that Palestinians were human shields. We even had better policy even though most voters didn't know it. I can only conclude voters are selfish and that's why they vote against their own interests.
You had me in the first half- took me to 'human shields' before I recognized the tone lol
itt a bunch of scratched liberals
It's useful when people use "liberal" as a slur as it really saves time on identifying who is a trump supporter or effectively a trump supporter through mental gymnastics
How is pointing out a bunch of fascists showing their true colors by openly calling for racial retribution "mental gymnastics"? The fact that you are trying so hard to associate sanity and compassion with being a Trump supporter makes me think you are just a bot paid for by the "other team". If you are a genuine Democrat then this is not a good look for your side and you should really do some self reflection because you are only going to lose your party votes with this rhetoric.
