I have no way to influence how 3.8 million people or so feel, though I do share the sentiments and agree with the majority. Arab [and Muslim] American leaders did try to make their case heard in the White House but were dismissed multiple times. These dismal results are not due to a lack of trying by the community to bridge gaps with the Democratic Party.

Arab Americans remain one of the more progressive groups in their voting pattern. The real issue are the people voting for Trump.
