American people deserve more credits that some of you are giving them. The fringe will remain the fringe. Most of us are reasonable. If the GOP goes too far we the people will correct it next time there is an election. And yes there will be an election.

If there isn't an election, there will be bloodshed.

There won’t be a legit election, just a sham one.

That won't necessarily stop the bloodshed.

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

I am from there, family still lives there. FWIW Most of the Lebanese I knew there were Christian not Muslim.

They have voted D and are became tired of not being heard. Ditto many of my Black neighbors. When are the Ds going to wake up? They are looking for someone who at least sees them even if they don’t help them. They are sending a message.

Joke is on them. Magas don't care about them

You still don’t get it. It was never about whether MAGAs care.

I would imagine those ads run in Arab areas had a major impact and cost her the election

I don't think Muslims are idiots. I doubt they based their vote on some nonsense ad like that.

Agree.

They made their bed, now they need to sleep in it. If they don't like it they need to think about better coalition building and tamping down the toxic BS of pro-Gaza protesters vandalizing statues of historic figures who don't even have anything to do with Gaza.

I feel very very sorry for the people of Gaza. America has let them down. The people of Dearborn let them down as well.

Harris was going to do let the aggression continue. So nothing lost.

Everyone is! There will never be peace in the Middle East. They all hate each other and vow the destruction of each other.

That's actually not true, but the military industrial complex and violent Zionists want you to believe it's true.

Exactly. The Zionists came to the middle east to seek safety and peace and quiet from Europe.

What happened with Palestine and Israel is largely the Brits fault. They promised the Holy Land to Jews and to Arabs after WW1 in favor of support in Beating the Ottoman Turks.
Jewish nationalism and Arab nationalism rose at the same time and the Brits were double dealing

THANK YOU! So many people ignorant of history.

You are unhinged. She would have lost even without Michigan.

Not at all unhinged. Every vote counts. At best they foolishly thought it would be "safe" to cast protest votes. It wasn't, and rarely is. Now they own the consequences of their actions.

?? Michigan is 15 EV. She lost by way more than that….

Vote for democracy is a stupid argument. People are worried about putting food on the table. People are worried about their relatives in Gaza. Most people don’t have the luxury of just voting for an abstract idea such as saving democracy.

I’m pretty sure that they also didn’t appreciate her dismissive “I’m speaking now” routine either.

Yes, that was cringeworthy.

It was her allotted time in the debate. Trump was being f'n rude and wasn't following debate protocol.

This wasn’t at the debate. It was at one of her rallies when pro Palestinians tried to ask a question.

Biden/Kamala are like the old fable - a wolf in sheep’s clothing. They play nice while 100% siding with Israel. And they pump up the billion dollar defence industry.

Why not roll the dice and see what happens with Trump. No one likes being steam rolled again and again and again

What they're getting from Trump is a wink and a nod to Bibi for him to kill any Arabs he wants.

Congrats on thinking just like Kamala. She clearly felt that she could treat the Arabs like crap because they had no choice but to vote for her. Sorry but that’s not how it works. You can only kick a dog so many times

Which is different from today in what way?

And in a year's time, when your grocery bill is still high and your housing costs are still high and you struggle to afford healthcare and your dollars continue to shrink, and the Republicans haven't done a damn thing to help you with any of that, are you still going to blindly grant them that mandate like a fool?

That's the essence of democracy. You try things, and if they don't work, next time you try something else.

Pronouns are so troublesome. To make things easier I will start referring to every female-seeming Republican as "he" and every male-seeming Republican as "she" - that should simplify it. Shouldn't be any offense in that, right?

Does Harris define pronouns?

It is very short sighted to think that spending billions of dollars on a war to kill people will have no effect at home.

The democratic party learned a hard lesson.

It will soon be de facto illegal to publicly criticize Israel without being threatened with deportation for anyone who lacks solid birthright citizenship going back several generations.

But you taught the Democrats a lesson. LOL!
