In his first run for president, Donald Trump promised a Muslim ban. Now, nearly seven years after Trump’s administration enacted a travel ban from several Muslim-majority countries, Democrats and Joe Biden want to be sure voters remember.
Biden and his allies are highlighting the former president’s treatment of Muslims as the current president deals with his own struggles with Muslims and Arab Americans over his handling of Israel’s war in Gaza.
“The more it becomes that binary choice between someone who is going to implement a Muslim ban on day one versus someone who is trying to develop a two-state solution,” one Biden ally told NOTUS, “there is really no choice.”
