Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud on Refusing Meeting with Trump, Not Endorsing Harris

All eyes are on Michigan as Donald Trump and Kamala Harris battle over undecided voters in the crucial swing state, including many of the state's 200,000 Arab American and Muslim voters who reject both the Republican and Democratic parties' stance on Israel and Palestine. We speak to Dearborn, Michigan's Lebanese American Mayor Abdullah Hammoud, who is the first Arab and Muslim mayor of the city, about many of his constituents' loss of support for the Democratic Party and how the Arab American vote could impact the presidential election. Hammoud, like many Dearborn residents, has lost extended family to Israel's attacks on Lebanon, and describes the climate in the city as a blanket of grief." Having called for a ceasefire and arms embargo on Israel, he refused to meet with Trump last week, but has also declined to endorse Harris. Hammoud calls on voters to not sit out the election entirely, but to vote their moral conscience, and says the citizens of Dearborn are willing to put people over party, first and foremost."
