The group Arab Americans for Trump is renaming itself Arab Americans for Peace after President Donald Trump said the U.S. would “take over” the Gaza Strip.
the group would now be called Arab Americans for Peace. […] Bahbah said the group had been thinking about changing its name for “a while” and ultimately made the decision Tuesday. But Bahbah had said during a phone interview just prior to Trump’s Tuesday night press conference with Netanyahu that the group’s name was Arab Americans for Trump.
“The talk about what the president wants to do with Gaza, obviously we’re completely opposed to the idea of the transfer of Palestinians from anywhere in Historic Palestine,” Bahbah said. “And so we did not want to be behind the curve in terms of pushing for peace, because that has been our objective from the very beginning.”
If that was your goal, why not divorce yourselves from election politics, at least in your name? You’re just trying to cling to influence.
