Tbh the Arabs in Dearborn actually voted that way and let everyone know they did
I wouldn't have been surprised if he won a few swing states, especially in states like this, with a big Muslim population who was angry at Biden for not condemning Israel Gaza Genocide. But all of them? Impossible.
So Trump lied to them, and the believed him, so they got Trump, and he proceeded to help Israel finish destroying Gaza, and has now unleashed WW3 in the Middle East. And whether they voted for him or not, he'll eventually send them all the Camps.
The problem is nobody actually cares. A small handful of community leaders so an opportunity to make some money, (maybe even money that could be used to help the people of the community), so they make a deal with trump to help him win.
Yes, he also had musk and ellison and thiel hacking election computers as well.
But every single time someone shakes hands with trump, they sre shaking hands with the most famous child rapist in the world and they dont care because theyre hoping to make some money.
Every world leader needs to call him out, Japanese PM should have said obviously we can't work with this racist child abuser, as should have Mark Carney and Keir Starmer and Merz and Macron et al et al et al
Like idk what we're doing as homo sapiens
