Former President Donald J. Trump took his message of ending the wars of the Harris-Biden regime to Dearborn, Michigan, a majority Muslim city in the critical battleground state, and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) threw a temper tantrum.
On Friday, Trump made a pitch to Muslim voters in the Detroit suburb as they have grown frustrated over the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza and their perception that the current administration has taken them for granted and isn’t receptive to their concerns over the ongoing carnage.
The GOP nominee got a warm reception when he visited an Arab-owned restaurant, the first candidate to pay a visit to Dearborn which Harris has snubbed, instead choosing to pander to suburban fence sitters with “Muslim hating warmonger” Liz Cheney.
Trump just stopped by an Arab owned restaurant in Dearborn, MI, the largest city in the US w/ a majority Arab population. He’s the first candidate to come here this cycle, and I asked him why Dearborn? He said he’s building inroads w/ Lebanese & Muslims. Got warm reception here. pic.twitter.com/10QJ1MP64y

“We have to get this whole thing over with,” Trump said during his stop at Dearborn’s The Great Commoner coffee shop where he was honored with a plaque “on behalf of all peace-loving Michiganders.”
“We want to have peace. We want to have peace on earth,” he told the crowd.
The volatile “Squad” member who represents Dearborn didn’t take kindly to Trump potentially poaching Muslim voters on her home turf.
Trump is a proud Islamophobe + serial liar who doesn’t stand for peace. The reality is that the Biden admin’s unconditional support for genocide is what got us here. This should be a wake-up call for those who continue to support genocide. This election didn’t have to be close. https://t.co/xufIYRR8Xn

“Trump is a proud Islamophobe + serial liar who doesn’t stand for peace. The reality is that the Biden admin’s unconditional support for genocide is what got us here. This should be a wake-up call for those who continue to support genocide. This election didn’t have to be close,” Tlaib wrote in a post to X.
But the pro-Hamas “Squad” bomb-thrower doth protest too much. It was Tlaib who led the opposition to “Genocide Joe” with the protest for the state’s Democrat primary when over 100,000 voted “undecided” which she cheered at the time. But now many of those “undecided” Muslim voters aren’t going to vote for Harris either with some at least willing to listen to what Trump has to say.
Tlaib shared a post from Dearborn’s Muslim Mayor Abdullah Hammoud who blamed Democrats for allowing the “architect of the Muslim Ban” to “infiltrate our communities,” a highly misleading claim from Hizzoner referring to the 2017 executive order restricting entry into the U.S. for people from a handful of countries known to be terrorist hotbeds.
The architect of the Muslim Ban is making a campaign stop in Dearborn. People in this community know what Trump stands for – we suffered through it for years. I’ve refused a sit down with him although the requests keep pouring in.
Trump will never be my president.
To the Dems…

“The architect of the Muslim Ban is making a campaign stop in Dearborn. People in this community know what Trump stands for – we suffered through it for years. I’ve refused a sit down with him although the requests keep pouring in,” the Democrat Hammoud said. “Trump will never be my president. To the Dems – your unwillingness to stop funding & enabling a genocide created the space for Trump to infiltrate our communities. Remember that.”
Democrats and the media dishonestly labeled it as a “Muslim ban” but that’s another lie. Trump did not ban entry into the country from the vast majority of countries with predominantly Muslim populations including Indonesia, Pakistan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Egypt which, if it were a “Muslim ban” as his critics claimed, would have all presumably been included on the list.
But Tlaib and Hammoud were just blowing sour grapes because the people in Dearborn who turned out to see Trump loved him.
He also explained his criticism of Harris’s new BFF which has been taken out of context by the Democrat nominee and the lying hoax mongers in the media.
“Even in my administration she was pushing that we go to war with everybody,” Trump said of Cheney. “And I said if you ever gave her a rifle and let her do the fighting, if you ever do that… she wouldn’t be too well, I will tell you that right now,” as cheers broke out.

“She’s a warhawk. She wants to kill people unnecessarily. If she had to do it herself. If she had to face the consequences of battle, she wouldn’t be doing it… She is actually a disgrace.”
“We have a great feeling for Lebanon and I know so many people from Lebanon, Lebanese people and the Muslim population, they’re liking Trump, and they’ve had a good relationship with him,” Trump also said. “This is it, this is where they are, Dearborn.”
“We want their votes, and we’re looking for their votes and I think we’ll get their votes,” he added.
Tlaib declined to endorse Harris during a UAW rally in Detroit on Friday, the Detroit News reported.
