The Spin
Arab Americans may be disappointed with the Biden administration over its response to the war in Gaza, but nothing justifies sitting out this election or wasting the vote on a third-party candidate — let alone voting for Trump. This is the most consequential election in US history, and Arab Americans have no choice but to vote for Kamala Harris.
Arab Americans are aware that a vote for Harris is a vote for the Biden-Harris administration, so they are now supporting Trump. This shift began some years ago as the community found common ground with conservatives against woke culture in schools, and has since gained momentum as they have realized America First is good for all Americans.
