A recent CNN interview with a Muslim activist in Wisconsin has Democrat strategists worried about President Joe Biden's 2024 electoral chances as more and more Muslim Americans are opting to sit out the November election due to Biden's policy stance on the current conflict between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
"No change of policy. He will be the reason that the Democrats lose. Wisconsin is a swing state," the Muslim activist said. "Without the constituents that worked so hard to help get him elected last time, myself included, he definitely will not win." Biden has faced increasing electoral headwinds from the Muslim community in various swing states following the October 7 attack by Hamas on Israel that led to the murder of over 1,100 civilians and the Israeli Defense Force's response.
The activist's warning to the Biden campaign comes after Muslim community leaders from Michigan, Minnesota, Arizona, Wisconsin, Florida, Georgia, Nevada, and Pennsylvania vowed to "Abandon Biden" in November, given his refusal to call for a ceasefire in Gaza. Biden has attempted to alleviate the Muslim community's concern about his policy stance by trying to walk a fine line between siding with Israel and providing humanitarian assistance to Gaza, but his efforts have bore little fruit.
According to the Real Clear Politics polling average, Trump is beating Biden by 2.1 points nationally, while the swing states look even worse for the 81-year-old Democrat. In Wisconsin, Trump is leading Biden by 1.0 percent, while Michigan voters are backing Trump over Biden by 3.5 points. Other swing states are even worse, with Trump having a 5.7 percent lead in Georgia, a 5.6 percent lead in Nevada, a 5.2 percent lead in Arizona, a 5.5 percent lead in North Carolina, and a 0.6 percent lead in Pennsylvania.
Democrats are doing everything they can to try to appease progressive voters who have the conflict in Gaza as one of their top priorities. Despite ordering additional humanitarian aid, the construction of an offshore pier on the coast of the Gaza Strip, and even attempting to pressure Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to order an invasion of the southern city of Rafa, the Biden campaign has failed to make his poll numbers budge. A central part of Biden's winning coalition in November is falling apart and abandoning him. His weakness with Muslim Americans could very well be his downfall and lead to another four years of America First policies when Donald Trump is inaugurated as the 47th President of the United States.
