Why did Arab majority Deerborn, Michigan go for Trump?

Anonymous
That's the outcome that is most perplexing to me. The explanation being given by the talking heads is that they were unhappy with the Biden administrations support of Israel. But they obviously realize that a Trump administration would be just as supportive of Israel. I would assume that they would go with the candidate who belongs to a party that has a significant faction of people opposed to supporting Israel, which is non-existent in the Republican party. Can anyone help me make sense of this?

Trump is not in power, and people's memories are short.

The Muslim community in Dearborn is largely made up of Lebanese and Palestinian folks who are ULTRA conservative from a social standpoint. Look at what happened a few years back from the book banning in libraries. Watch some of the hearings and you’ll want to wash your eyes out.

The Middle Eastern community of SE MI is not a monolith, though.

Are they stupid racists? That seems to be the explanation for everything.

This tracks…I’ve been thinking for a while that the MAGAs are basically on track to becoming the Christian Taliban.

Most of them abstained or voted 3rd party due to our support of genocide in Gaza.

Please get a grip. Christian Taliban? This kind of thinking and rhetoric helped Trump win. People supported Trump for lots of reasonable reasons. We are a country with borders — we can’t just have people walking in, no idea who they are, what they’ve done or where they are going. Saying this will turn us into the Taliban is lunacy. But thanks for helping get Trump elected with your lunacy.

Harris didn’t earn their vote.

Simple,

Trump has reportedly told Osrael that he wants the Middle East conflict over in Gaza before he is sworn in. Also Iran had a huge drop in their market after the Trump win.

Get Israel to stop bombing Gaza, get Iran to stop allowing Hezbollah to attack Israel, boom,

No conflict in Middle East.

It does not fix the long standing issues that need to be worked out, but at lease no more death on a large scale.

Biden/Harris were doing NOTHING!

I suspect the people fed up with protests turning anti-American voted Trump. Protesters voted Stein.

Because apparently they want Gaza to be completely destroyed. Because that will be the outcome of their vote.

Trump will let Netanyahu do whatever he wants. From now through the next four years, the blood of every dead Gazan child, the death of every innocent Lebanese, will be on the hands of Dearborn Muslims.

What a waste of a vote. Wish people like Stein would drop out after the conventions.
