Green Party candidate Jill Stein is gaining ground among Muslim-American voters in three critical swing states: Michigan, Arizona, and Wisconsin, according to a recent poll by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).

Stein leads Vice President and Democrat candidate Kamala Harris in these states, with 40 per cent support in Michigan, 35 per cent in Arizona, and 44 per cent in Wisconsin. This surge in popularity appears tied to Stein’s vocal criticism of US support for Israel during the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

    liberals will side with Trump when he does another Muslim ban.

    Based on how quickly liberals threw DREAMers under the bus when it started being necessary to outflank Republicans to their right on immigration? This is an inevitability. They were going to do this even if they won, based on the way Hillary Clinton won by three million but Black men still had to hear the most about it from the daughters of Emmett Till’s false-accuser.

    EDIT: You can see exactly what I’m talking about right here being directly weaponized against actually-principled socialists and communists in this very fucking thread. Stay classy, sh.itsfulla.nazis!

      Muslim and/or Arab men also had to hear this nonsense from Harris during the presidential debate when Harris repeated misinformation about October 7, where she said that Hamas and Palestinians sexually assaulted Israelis. How can she expect them to vote for her after that? Harris in general is really bad at speaking to minority men in the United States. I guess that’s the predictable end result of Harris making a career out of being a persecutor and sending them to jail.
