These 6 Muslim Women Will Get Detained if Trump Gets Presidential Immunity
If there’s one thing setting the stage for an utterly bonkers chapter in American history, it’s the tantalizing prospect of the president acquiring a get-out-of-jail-free card, aka presidential immunity. And with his diabolical vision of an Islam-free America (because why not add that to the chaos?), many of us might soon find ourselves on a grand tour of the nation’s prison system. Buckle up, friends, because the race to this dystopian future is officially on.
Here are the Muslim women that Trump will ultimately create a blank space for if he gets his second term.
Case #1: Mona Haydar
Nationality: Syrian-American
Allegation: Spotted wearing a yellow face mask on the beach while singing, “This burkini’s my slingshot.”
Case #2: Elyanna
Nationality: Palestinian-Chilean
Allegation: Shouting “Yalla yalla, Yanna!” in public, which allegedly poses a threat to national security.
Case #3: Rashida Tlaib
Nationality: Palestinian American
Allegation: Not letting Trump distort her words.
Case #4: Ilhan Omar
Nationality: Somali American
Allegation: Reminding the Congress that she didn’t undertake the position to remain silent.
Case #5: Amani
Nationality: Palestinian American
Allegation: Using the word “bombarded” while describing the insane number of weird emails she gets.
Case #6: Bella Hadid
Nationality: Palestinian American
Allegation: Posting a photo of herself on the beach eating watermelon with the caption, “Does this remind anyone of anything?”
As the drama unfolds in the coming months, one thing remains painfully obvious: no matter who slides into the presidential hot seat, don’t expect things to magically improve. It’s on us to roll up our sleeves and keep fighting for our rights against this presidential immunity drama that’s set to wrestle power from the people and gift-wrap it for one lucky president.
