Democrat ‘Squad’ Member Rashida Tlaib Snubs Kamala Harris Endorsement

Radical Democrat “Squad” member Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) has refused to endorse her party’s presidential candidate Kamala Harris.
In the final hours before Election Day, Harris has not felt the same kind of momentum and support felt by President Donald Trump and his campaign.
From surrogate gaffes to shifting poll numbers in the wrong direction, Harris and her campaign have been in a total nightmare for the past several weeks.
The situation worsened when it was revealed that Harris wasn’t even supported by one of her progressive allies.
According to Breitbart, Tlaib snubbed Harris at a United Auto Workers (UAW) union rally in Detroit, Michigan.
Michigan is one of a few states that are absolutely critical to providing a path to the White House for either Trump or Harris.
Harris’s campaign has already been struggling in the union-heavy state.
During the rally, Tlaib encouraged those in attendance and Democrat votes in general to turn out at the ballot box on Tuesday.
However, she stopped short of telling them to support Harris.
Instead, Tlaib spent most of her speech bashing Trump.
“Don’t underestimate the power you all have,” Tlaib said.
“More than those ads, those lawn signs, those billboards, you all have more power to turn out people that understand we’ve got to fight back against corporate greed in our country.”
Her message comes as Trump continues to see a swell of support among the state’s Muslim and Arab voters.
Meanwhile, the vice president has seen her support plummet among those voters due to the Biden-Harris administration’s stance on the Israel-Hamas war.
A local news outlet ran cover for Tlaib, saying she “focused her speech to UAW members on down-ballot races.”
But that’s not really the reason, however.
Tlaib has publicly expressed her disdain for Harris and Biden.
The congresswoman has previously suggested voters move away from Biden over the Israel-Hamas situation.
Michigan, which is home to a large Muslim-American voter population, is looking much more favorable for Trump as the election draws closer.
Those voters, who number in the tens of thousands, could be key to solidifying a victory for either candidate in what will otherwise be a close race.
Should Trump win Michigan, it will be a massive boost and likely propel him to victory.
One can be assured that Harris’s ho-hum support in the state is keeping the campaign up at night.
