Can MAGA Conservatives and Muslim Americans Unite?
As the Republican Party leaves neoconservatism behind, new coalitions become possible.
One of the main takeaways from President Donald Trump’s election victory was the inroads he made with Hispanics and African-Americans, two large minority demographics traditionally associated with the Democrats.
However, the increase in support for Trump among Muslim voters was arguably more dramatic, with Trump’s share of the Muslim vote increasing from 17 percent to 31 percent from the 2020 election.
This increase was largely due to the Biden administration’s support for Israel’s war in Gaza, which alienated Muslims and Arabs in key battleground states, such as Michigan, which has a sizable Arab and Muslim population that Trump courted on the campaign trail.
Author's summary: MAGA and Muslims may unite.
