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.
Of course, they all got together to do Islamophobia in unison after 9/11. But what the Bidens ousting proves is that Democrats cannot literally just do whatever they want. There are limits to how hard they can sell out.
Those limits are set by the amount of people willing to vote for it. The DNC would have 100% ran Biden again if they could manage to get their skeleton puppet re-elected again.
Democrats changed Biden for the simple reason of people not willing to vote for him. Nobody will get what they want by simply caving for the DNC and voting for them unconditionally. Democrats did not want to change Biden they were forced to listen for votes.
Biden’s ousting proves that the party donors control the party. They changed candidates because the donors didn’t want him, and as soon as they changed the Party was showered with money.
Now certainly voter enthusiasm was part of that, but only to a certain extent. Donors aren’t going to pull funding because Democrats join a bipartisan Muslim ban.
Donors did everything they could to keep Biden in. Even after Biden ‘beat medicare’ in his debate with Trump he got backing from the establishment.
The establishment ditched Biden solely because had no shot at beating Trump. No matter how much he was the perfect ghoul puppet, if he can’t win there’s nothing for his donors to control.
Both parties are trying to sell votes to the highest bidders. Their goal is to sell out as much as possible while still winning the election. But they are now straddling so close to that line that they need to make compromises.
Many immigrants tried to vote Democrat in 2020 only to be met with “build the wall”. Muslims loyally voted Democrat and were met with Genocide in Palestine. When politicians don’t get punished for going against their voters interests they only learn to keep doing it. After all why should they listen to their base if they keep voting for them
That is revisionist history.

Donors didn’t want to waste money on a loser, but they won’t respond the same if Democrats alienate Muslims. There’s bipartisan consensus on genocide. The donors are all for it.
Yes thats my point. They will only respond and appeal to voters when they drop in the polls.
They’re polling very poorly among Muslims.
The problem is that Muslims are a minority voting population. They only effect the race in a few states. Biden was so bad that he was hurting Democrats in every state.
I just don’t think Democrats will do anything to chase Muslim voters. They’d rather help Republicans eliminate them.
I half agree. They are small in number but they have a huge advantage that they primarily live in swing states where all votes matter. If they lived in a blue state you would be completely right.
In the end it really comes down to whether Democrats feel enough pressure before the election to take action. If Trump keeps flopping and crashing in the election they hold little power. If the polls are super close there’s a chance Democrats will be forced to take action just like how they dumped Biden.
