In a recent video circulating online, President Trump can be seen boasting about the high levels of support he apparently received from Muslim voters in Michigan during the 2016 election. Trump claimed that a CNN anchor “almost choked” while reporting on this surprising revelation.
During a speech at a campaign rally, Trump boasted about the widespread support he claimed to have received from the Muslim community in Michigan, despite his controversial comments and policies targeting Muslims throughout his presidency. He went on to criticize the CNN anchor for allegedly struggling to report on this unexpected show of support.
The video of Trump’s remarks has sparked controversy and skepticism among viewers, with many questioning the accuracy of his claims and the motives behind his statements. Critics have pointed out the irony of Trump celebrating Muslim support after implementing policies such as the travel ban that have targeted Muslim-majority countries.
CNN has not yet responded to Trump’s claims or addressed the alleged incident of a reporter “almost choking” while reporting on his high Muslim support. The video has ignited debate over the reliability of Trump’s statements and the impact of his divisive rhetoric on minority communities.
As the 2020 election approaches, Trump’s comments about Muslim support in Michigan are likely to be a topic of discussion and scrutiny among voters and media outlets. The accuracy of his claims and the implications for his reelection campaign remain to be seen.
