Donald Trump visited Dearborn, Michigan, the largest Arab-majority city in the country, on Friday to take the lion’s den to judge displeased and disillusioned Muslim Americans.

Dearborn is a good place for Trump to run. The conflict in Gaza has angered many of Biden’s Muslim adherents. More than 100, 000 people cast “uncommitted” vote during the main final flower, many of them cast in Muslim-heavy populations, including Dearborn, Dearborn Heights, and Hamtramck.
Trump addressed the crowd at Warren’s Macomb Community College on Friday,” I need every Arab American in Michigan to get out and vote.”
Earlier in October, Trump campaigned in Hamtramck where the city’s Muslim president, Amer Ghalib, endorsed him. Mayor Bill Bazzi, who is also Arab, has even supported Trump.  ,
But, Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud “refused a sit over with” Trump, “although the requests keep pouring in”.
” Trump will never be my leader”, Hammoud added. To the Dems: Your inability to stop funding andamp; allowing a murder made it possible for Trump to invade our areas. Consider that”.
I guess Trump the n’t win’ em all.
Any way you look at it, Trump’s Dearborn halt was a in. He at least increased the tension between the country’s Democratic Party and its Muslim United audience while gaining some help.

” It is time to prioritize our nation’s best interests and foster lasting peace for all”, Albert Abbas, an Arab American, said Friday while standing next to Trump. This latest leadership has let down badly in every way possible.
He added,” We look to a Trump presidency with hope and envisioning a time where peace flourishes, particularly in Lebanon and Palestine”.
Major group leaders in Dearborn, including Hammoud, declined an invitation to join with Trump while he was in area. Several community leaders claim that despite Harris not getting their vote, they are also increasingly opposed to Trump.
Siblani, a well-known figure in the area who has spoken with Democratic officials about continuous tensions, claimed that some “do not confidence” Trump because of his previous actions and statements. Nevertheless, he emphasized the significance of Trump’s visit to Dearborn.
” Kamala may have done this weeks ago”, Siblani said.
Abbas, the owner of the Trump campaign’s venue, The Great Commoner, was looking for a statement from him that stated he “has the intentions of ending the war and helping us rebuild Lebanon and helping the displaced and the injured” ( source ).

During my Leadership, we had peace in the Middle East, and we will have peace afterwards very quickly! I will address the issues that Kamala Harris and Joe Biden have caused and prevent Lebanon’s suffering and damage. I want to see the Middle East return to authentic peace, a profound serenity, …

His promises to “preserve the identical relationship among all Syrian areas” is a slap in the face to Hezbollah, which rejects the concept of shared state among Shiites, Sunnis, and Christians.  ,
Before the plan ends on Tuesday, Harris has no plans to travel to Dearborn.  ,
