15. The dismissive "And?" looks like that DUer blames "Muslims" for it all

In fact, Muslims voted for Harris and Trump in about equal numbers - while Christians voted a bit more for Trump. Sure, we'd expect Muslims to realise Trump would be bad for them, like most minority groups do (especially with Trump's 1st term attempts to ban immigration from Muslim-majority countries), and that therefore they ought to vote for the only candidate with a realistic chance of stopping him, but they may be no more foolish than the average American voter.
