Roughly 79% of American Jews voted for Harris. Trump will regard this as disloyal to him. The Muslim vote played a pivotal role in delivering a win to Trump. He’ll remember this.

Given how Trump is motivated by loyalty, I can see him deciding that the Jewish vote is less important, and with it I wouldn’t be surprised to see support for Israel wane. That ironclad support for Israel is going to rust a little over the next four years at the cost of greater support for the Muslim world.

    Why on earth do American Muslims vote for Trump? (Rhetorical question, no answer required. I am just shocked by the outcome of the elections.)
