Muslim and Arab Americans say their support was critical to Biden’s winning Michigan in 2020. Some warn they won’t back him again over his blanket support for Israel.

They might vote for neither.

So a half vote for the party that wants them banned. Smart.

Same difference

Not really.

Either your vote matters, or it doesn't. You can't have it both ways.

Your vote always matters, especially if you don't vote. The progressives who couldn't bring themselves to vote for Hilary voted for a generation of conservative control over the Supreme Court. The American Muslims who can't bring themselves to vote for Biden are voting for persecution.

Every Muslim voter is going to choose between 'not their ally' and 'their enemy'. They can skip the polls, but they're going to vote whether they like it or not.

Nothing says “land of the free” like being forced to vote against your own interests no matter what.

Best. System. Ever.
