“We are supporting Donald Trump because he promised to end war in the Middle East and Ukraine,” Alzuhairi said. “The bloodshed has to stop all over the world, and I think this man can make that happen. I personally believe that God saved his life twice for a reason.”
Following Alzuhairi’s speech, Trump also brought on Bill Bazzi, the mayor of Dearborn Heights in Michigan. Bazzi, a Muslim who immigrated to the United States from Lebanon and served in the U.S. Marines, also supports the former president.
“We are going to stop the wars; we are going to make the United States safe again,” Bazzi said at the rally.
“What a nice endorsement,” Trump said after Bazzi’s speech. “These are great people.”
