Kamala Harris won the endorsement of Michelle Obama in Michigan, where Donald Trump is seeking to win over the Muslim vote.
Reuters reports this.
At a rally in the key state, Obama gave an emotional defense of Harris as Trump spoke to Muslim voters, arguing that her policies would bring peace to the Middle East.
Michigan, with an Arab-American and Muslim population, is reeling from the Israeli bombing of Gaza and concerns about the future of the auto industry as electric vehicles become more popular. The elections will take place on November 5 and early voting has already begun.
And during a rally in suburban Detroit, Trump said he had recently met with local imams and deserves the support of Muslim voters by promising to end the conflicts. He also assured automobile workers that he could improve the region’s economic situation. While Trump has expressed support for Israel, he has not specified how he intends to resolve the conflict.
Some American Muslims have expressed discontent with the actions of President Biden and Vice President Harris, who allowed Trump to count on their votes despite his bans on immigration from some Muslim countries. Imam Belal Al-Zuhairi called on Muslims to support Trump for his promises of peace.
Meanwhile, in southern Michigan, in Kalamazoo, Harris addressed the issues of women’s rights, taxes and health care, distinguishing her platform from Trump’s. Michelle Obama, citing a double standard in evaluating candidates, urged voters not to ignore Trump’s incompetence.
Harris also faced protests over the war in Gaza, but confidently continued her speech, emphasizing the need for policy changes. He said Trump is less balanced and more unstable than ever.
Before the rally, Harris met with female doctors who spoke about the health care crisis following the overturning of Roe v. Wade. Meanwhile, Trump traveled to Pennsylvania, where he also tried to rally young people to his side at a rally.
Recent polls show Harris slightly ahead of Trump nationally, and the gap between the two is narrow in Michigan.
Recall that Kursor wrote that Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, according to media reports, believes that if Donald Trump wins the US elections, his “unpredictability” could become an important factor in the confrontation with Russia.
