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.
“Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what the hell is going on.”
All this time/effort organizing around him when a 5 minute Google search would have shown you he’d pledge unquestioning support for Netanyahu
Not to mention Trump’s “sharpie realignment” of Israel’s border during his last term. These people have rocks in their heads if they thought this was going to go any other way.
Trump unleashing the leopards to eat the people’s faces.
Exactly as he promised.
Voting has consequences. The time to wake the fuck up was two weeks ago. I guess the next best time is now.
It’s not like they weren’t warned.
No fucking shit.
Go fuck yourself.
“Hey, asshole. Shut up and get on the plane.”- Trump Administration to this chucklefuck in a couple months.
You voted for this, you stupid motherfucker. Now you get to enjoy the ride like the rest of us.
There won’t be planes, or deportations. There will only be caged slave laborers in concentration camps owned by his friends, with the government (read taxpayers) paying the rent month after month, year after year.
Weird kink you got, mate
Concentration camps might be a bit hyperbolic, but that was actually a fairly accurate description of how private prisons manage to make a profit.
Except for a handful of states that passed legislation to prevent it, the 13th amendment makes an exception allowing involuntarily servitude as the punishment for committing crimes. If they manage to create a kangaroo court designed to be a revolving door of convictions for “illegal immigrants”, they absolutely could keep people effectively locked up as slaves for a while.
Concentration camps might be a bit hyperbolic
It is not. Calling them “death camps” would be hyperbolic because Trump hasn’t started talking about a “final solution” (yet), but “concentration camp” is very much a factually-accurate synonym for the sorts of mass detention facilities necessary to implement deportations at the scale Trump has been proposing.
You are absolutely correct, but I was trying to avoid being inflammatory and giving an easy strawman when explaining why Trump’s concentration camps are within the realm of possibility.
They’re the sort of assholes who’d only have ham sandwiches on the flight
I didn’t think the leopards would eat my face!
I mean what did they expect? Yes, i didn’t agree with Bidens current policy or what Kamala was going to do, but I knew trump would be worse.
Man, Americans are so fat even our leopards overeat.
What were they expecting? He showed everyone who he was and they still voted for him.
I honestly have no idea how any Muslim could vote for Trump unless they were completely ignorant. He is not their friend by any stretch of the imagination. It’s not going to end well for them.
Conservative religious beliefs and ignorance often go hand-in-hand.
From the Reuters article on the same topic:
‘They will be peaceful when they are dead’
How could any Muslim think Trump would not be bad for them.
Why oh why didn’t anyone warn them?
Dumb fucks
