The Facts

  • Both the Democratic and Republican US presidential candidates are holding rallies on the eve of Tuesday's election. Vice Pres. Kamala Harris is visiting Pennsylvania, while former Pres. Donald Trump is traveling to Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Michigan.

  • Speaking at a rally in East Lansing, Mich. on Sunday, Harris pledged to "do everything in [her] power to end the war in Gaza," return US hostages, and ensure both Israeli security and Palestinian self-determination. Michigan has the highest proportional Arab population of any US state at 2.1%.


The Spin

Democratic narrative

Although the Biden administration's policies toward Gaza and many key issues have left many progressives angry and upset, a vote for an alternative candidate will only benefit Trump. Harris supports a cease-fire and a two-state solution, while Trump is renowned for his rampant history of Islamophobia. This election is a clear choice between unity and division. Trump's hate-fueled politics can't be allowed to win.

Republican narrative

This election is the best chance America will ever have of removing Harris and the leftist, establishment elite from the halls of power. From Hamas sympathizers to deep-state media operatives, the odds have remained stacked against Trump ever since he announced his intention to first run for president. The Biden-Harris administration has failed this country, and it's time for Trump to return to the White House.
