Ahmed Ghanim said no thanks — but the ejection could be the kind of thing that drives Arab and Muslim voters to Trump.

    “I guess that’s how the Democratic Party deals with Muslims. They’re not important to them. … Maybe the Democratic Party doesn’t want people like me and my kind in the party.”

    If you’re going to jump to conclusions and immediately start flinging shit, then yeah… get the fuck out. It has nothing with you being Muslim and everything with you being a shallow asshole.

      What did he do? It’s not in this article, or any article that i can find online. He said himself he doesn’t know why he was kicked out.

        I quoted it for you. He didn’t ask questions. He didn’t get any information. He just started talking out of his ass and smearing an entire group of people and building a bullshit narrative. At most, he could say that his how someone at that venue treated him. He can’t say jack shit about all Democrats or all Muslims. He has no such authority and no such knowledge.

          Okay, great, you don’t like the guy. But that still doesn’t explain why he was kicked out of the venue. I’m not trying to start an argument. I was asking a legitimate question you seemed to have some prior knowledge of. If you don’t, then why are you commenting?

            Did they remove every Muslim from the event? Did Harris or her staff request he be removed? Does he really get to speak for all Muslims? Is that really why he was removed?

            My strong hypothesis is that the answer to all of those questions is “no”.

            Since he’s shown a propensity for exaggeration and dishonesty after being removed, it’s reasonable to think he did something that caught someone’s attention who had the authority to remove him.
