They need something to offset the loss of Michigan.
Even factoring in a loss of votes for Harris from Michigan’s Arab-American or Palestinian-American or Muslim population, it’s not like that entire population is voter-eligible. Many are under the age of 18. Some others are not U.S. citizens. And then there are many others who just don’t vote (haven’t in the past, likely won’t this election). And it’s not like the entire population is going to refuse to vote for Harris. She will still probably get a lot of votes from within that population. And Biden’s 2020 Michigan victory wasn’t based mainly on votes from that population.

In other words, while losing a substantial number of those votes certainly poses a problem, it doesn’t mean Harris loses Michigan.

I've read that there are 200K Muslim voters in MI. Not all of them Arab, and not all of the Arabs Muslim.
 


Do….do the Republicucks know they aren’t running against Hillary Clinton and that the last time they did so was nearly a decade ago?
 
I know fascism is not endemic to any one race or ethnicity. And that that personality type occurs in every group, among numerous individuals. But how in the world American minorities, at least, don't get what this American iteration means is beyond me.

Arrogance, of course, not unique to any group either. I guess everyone always thinks, "Surely it will just be the other guy who suffers, not me," despite history showing us again and again that thinking merely the stuff of fantasy.
 
Tony Hinchcliffe is a great comedian (KillTony is hilarious), but he doesn’t give AF how offensive his jokes are. Not a good look for sure.
I’ve listened to Kill Tony once because he had on a couple comics who I like. It wasn’t my thing, but I don’t know enough about him to know whether this is just a massive inside troll job on trump, to generate all these viral clips that won’t be helping his numbers anywhere, but especially not in PA.

It just feels like there might be something else going on there. But in any case it’s a wild miscalculation by the campaign, and I hope he goes even bigger and brasher.
