Muslims who voted for Trump upset by his pro-Israel cabinet picks
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.

This is just islamophobic. Why not ask white people who overwhelmingly voted for Trump?
This doesn't make any sense in the context of the article. And we're all deeply disappointed in the white people too.
Why not Latinos, who had a major shift in voting from 2020? This is at least the 7th article I’ve seen today, across multiple news sites, pushing the narrative that Muslims “made a mistake,” or “regret their vote.” A couple only had one individual quote. That is not indicative of a widespread belief. From the interviews I’ve seen, from the Uncommitted delegates and Muslim American leaders in Dearborn, their votes (or lack of) were intentional and deliberated.
Not to say that there aren’t many Muslims that don’t have this opinion; they aren’t a monolith. But, to generalize an entire community this way is negligent journalism.
Latins think that if they legally entered the country, nothing will happen to them or the people they know (we'll see)
But muslims who care deeply about Palestine heard trump saying the'd let Israel "finish the job" and some of them even campaigned for him. What world are they living in?

Clinton????
CAIR also released Michigan-specific responses from 502 registered Muslim voters, revealing that Dr. Stein received 59% support, with Trump at 22% and Harris at 14%.
Phobic?
