  • think we screwed up

    After Trump's remarks on Gaza, some in Dearborn, Michigan 'think we
    screwed up'

    Trump's plan to "take over" Gaza was met with outrage in Dearborn,
    Michigan, an Arab American enclave.

    Donald Trump won Dearborn, Michigan, a traditionally Democratic Arab
    American enclave, thanks largely to outrage over Kamala Harris and the
    Biden administration's stance on Israel.

    Some are starting to have regrets.

    After Trump unveiled a plan to "take over" Gaza and relocate nearly 2
    million Palestinians to neighboring countries, two mayors in the
    region who had stumped for Trump have gone silent. And some Dearborn
    residents have been left horrified by the president's attitude toward Palestinians.

    After Trump made his comments, people in Dearborn are responding "with
    extreme anger and disappointment with this president who lied to this
    community to steal some of their votes," said Osama Siblani, editor of Dearborn's Arab American News.

    Hahaha... he tricked them... oh did they fall for it! =D And now he
    couldn't care less. Welcome dear naive arabians, to the world of western democracy, where a promise is a promise until after election day. Then
    there are no promises any longer. Hilarious! =D

    He didn't steal anybody's votes. He collected them from the dumbasses
    who willingly believed his lies and voted for him freely.


    Maybe the Venezuelans and Palestinians should get together and drink
    tea together. Turns out they have lots in common:

    * dumbasses
    * got screwed over
    * bitter about it
