Donald Trump will cast a long shadow in September when Muslims across the U.S. gather to celebrate Eid al-Adha, known as the Feast of Sacrifice.
Now that Trump, whose anti-Muslim rhetoric has punctuated the campaign season, has secured the Republican presidential nomination, his candidacy could propel Muslim-Americans to head to the polls and vote against him.
"The rhetoric that Trump is putting out there is creating a lot of mobilization," said Amaney Jamal, a politics professor at Princeton University who has studied Muslim American political participation and voting behavior.
In part to to help defeat Trump, Muslim organizations are banding together on Eid al-Adha to hold a national voter registration day at mosques and community centers in hopes of reaching their goal to register one million new voters.
And on Election Day, there will be plenty of buses on hand to take voters to cast their ballots.

So they're going to vote for the person responsible for multiple failed middle eastern states?

They're voting for the one that doesn't think every brown skinned person is a terrorist.

Trump should cause record turn out of everyone who doesn't want this country going into a populist tyrannical hell.

Wait are we talking about Hillary? She's a monster.

Oh yeah, things were monstrously bad under Clintons last time. Terrible.

I can't recall the last time she was President.

 

[theeedude]

I can't recall the last time she was President.

If she is being tarred for NAFTA, etc, alongside Bill, she can take credit for the Clinton economy too.

 

[theeedude]

Trump on the other hand is a narcissistic autocratic demagogue. Someone who should not be let within a mile of the White House, if you want to keep America great.

Well since other Muslims are the victim of terrorism committed by Muslims somewhere around 82-97% of the time you'd figure they'd recognize a problem themselves. Or that hispanics that immigrated legally would recognize the problem of millions of other hispanics who are here illegally. But I guess it's just easier to vote for a Democrat and see what happens.

There are hundreds of millions of muslims on this earth. What exactly do you propose muslims do about this problem?

...and the dot-com collapse as well? Well damn...let the good times roll!

Apparently some people have assigned the value of their egos to whether Clinton is good or evil with the result that the pro and the con engage in slandering each other to protect a worthless concept of self worth. You are an asshole and I am great etc etc etc. What fun to be an idiot. None of this would happen if the elephant in the room is that you feel worthless and need an ideology to which to hitch your wagon.

Like I said, evidently the same as blacks (who kill each other at similar rates) and vote for Democrats who avoid the subject.

Bush isn't running.

Could've fooled me.

What a laugh. It is the pervasiveness of people as psychologically ignorant and unevolved as you who keep Blacks killing each other. And just imagine what the chances are that you will see that. It's quite understandable why you look for somebody else to blame. Until you understand them you will never free yourself from your true guilt. That's the way Karma works. You hardened your heart in the vane hope you would not suffer. The result is numbness.

Yup. The Muslim voters will be blowing up this fall. :ninja:

 

[theeedude]

I think Trump is going to cause a record Jewish turnout too, maybe Hispanic as well.

That's not saying much



I think it would be hilarious if Hillary won specifically because of the Latino vote and the Muslim vote.

I could say more, Obama continued or expanded Bush's terrible neocon foreign policies occasionally at Hillary's urging. If Hillary is elected, she'll continue it and the formerly antiwar Democrats will blame Bush's "toxic legacy" 12 years later, 16 if they can get away with it.

Regarding the Hispanic vote, Hillary was in favor of a wall to curb illegal immigration before she was against it. I've already referenced the amazing things she's done in the middle east.

Oh, I wouldn't bet on that. Hillary's connected to the DNC now and the DNC is referring to Hispanic events as "taco bowl engagements" and I'm sure that'll endear her to Hispanics.

Also, Obama spurned Loretta Sanchez in the California US Senate race in favor of Kamala Harris and the Sanchex camp is calling this a racial thing. Meaning it's going to get ugly. And sooner or later Hillary will be forced to say something in this race and she won't have any good choices.

1. Endorse Harris and lose Hispanics.
2. Endorse Sanchez and lose blacks.
3. Refuse to endorse either and risk losing both.

Most voters couldn't care less about that stuff. You are getting into intra party politics, something that doesn't even register on the list of voter concerns.

They could kick their neighbors a$$ when they talk about terrorism, killing people, and Sharia for everyone. That's what every other society does when their neighbors are a$$holes. They've had 1400 years to do it and haven't.
It looks like their only option is to vote for Trump and let him take care of it if they want to live.
Staying alive could be serious motivation.

What would you do if you were them?
