US Muslim leaders who supported Republican Donald Trump to protest against the Biden administration’s support for Israel’s war on Gaza and attacks on Lebanon have been deeply disappointed by his cabinet picks, they tell Reuters.

“Trump won because of us and we’re not happy with his Secretary of State pick and others,” says Rabiul Chowdhury, a Philadelphia investor who chaired the Abandon Harris campaign in Pennsylvania and co-founded Muslims for Trump. Muslim support for Trump helped him win Michigan and may have factored into other swing state wins, strategists believe.

    Wow. Cool. It’s neither A, nor B. It’s C: misconstrue. I guess Quixote was a prophetic nickname.

    Now tell me what i think of liberals. And Christians. And Pacific Islanders. And black paraplegic Jewish Eskimo rodeo clowns… Because if you think that I’m lumping any demographic into that statement outside of stupid people, then you are exactly who I’m talking about.

    There’s a difference between ignorant and stupid. I prefer ignorance. It’s just a lack of exposure to something, and it’s easily cured. Stupid is stupid is stupid. It doesn’t care about your race or gender or personal identity. Neither do i.

    Are you a Muslim Trump voter? If not, then I’ll wait for a Muslim Trump voter to call me out for the offense I’ve given.

      I’m not lumping in jack shit buddy, you’re just backtracking on the stupid Islamophobic shit you’ve been saying and backing up here. Again, since you seem to have a blind spot for your own comments

      Again, if you’re only talking about Muslims that voted trump, make that actually fucking clear instead of just saying Muslims are stupid and not worth appealing to (or “teaching”, as you say since you’re so much smarter than those savages)

        I never said Muslims are stupid. I never actually said Muslim voters for trump are stupid (though i do think that.) I clarified that someone else said Muslim Trump voters are stupid, not Muslims are stupid. This whole crusade (pun definitely intended) you’ve gone on is completely misdirected, and kinda adorable. You’re just virtue signaling so hard.
