Arab and Muslim-American Leaders Endorse Trump in Michigan Rally
During a campaign rally in Novi, Michigan, Arab- and Muslin-American leaders came out in support of Republican presidential nominee and former President Donald Trump. This endorsement is significant in a key swing state with over 200,000 Muslim-American voters.
Trump currently holds a slight lead over Vice President Kamala Harris in Michigan, according to RealClearPolitics’ polling average.
At the rally, Trump expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support from Muslim and Arab voters in Michigan.
The endorsements included prominent figures like Hamtramck Mayor Amer Ghalib, Dearborn Heights Mayor Bill Bazzi, and Imam Belal Alzuhairi. They cited reasons such as Trump’s promise to end war in the Middle East and Ukraine as key factors in their support.
Recent polls indicate a shift in support among Arab- and Muslim-Americans, with some drifting away from the Democratic Party due to concerns over the Biden-Harris administration’s approach to the Middle East conflict.
One poll showed a nearly even split between Trump and Harris among Arab American registered voters, while another revealed support for Green Party candidate Jill Stein and Harris equally among American Muslim voters.
Overall, the endorsements from Arab and Muslim leaders in Michigan signal a growing trend of support for Trump within these communities.
