UFC Stars Back Trump in Appeal to Arab Americans in Michigan – EVOL

A group of UFC stars gathered in Detroit last week to convince Arab Americans to vote for former president Donald Trump as the election comes down to its final two weeks.

Fighters Justin Gaethje, Beneil Dariush, and Henry Cejudo, who spoke for Trump at the event sponsored by the Conservative Middle Eastern political-action committee, told supporters that Trump is the best bet for Arab Americans because the former president will work toward actual peace in the Middle East, Fox News reported.

The Iran-born Dariush, for one, said that Donald Trump is a different sort of politician than those who have come before him.

“For me, peace abroad, it’s probably like second to my own family at home. I want peace for my family. I want prosperity for my family at home. But to forget about those people?” he said.

“I saw the things he did in the Middle East, where he stopped ISIS, where he stopped bombing just random people like [former President Barack] Obama was doing,” Dariush added, according to the New York Post.

“He made me realize something about the government — not just over there, there’s extremists, there’s extremists on our side, too.
