Donald Trump’s claimed role in brokering a Gaza ceasefire has intensified Arab American frustration with President Biden. Many feel Biden failed to secure peace despite months of opportunity, while Trump’s intervention seemingly pushed Israel to agree. The ceasefire, set to begin Sunday, follows pressure on Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu by Trump’s envoy. Arab American voters, particularly in Michigan, express anger over Biden’s handling of the war, branding him “Genocide Joe” and questioning Democratic support for Palestinian rights. Skepticism remains over the ceasefire’s durability.
