When Donald Trump flew to Dearborn, Michigan, days before the 2024 election, he was greeted like a king. In between rounds of applause at the Great Commoner restaurant, he made a solemn pledge to the mostly Arab-American crowd: peace in the Middle East. As a token of their gratitude, members of the community gave Trump a peace plaque embossed with a Reagan quote: "Peace is not the absence of conflict, but the ability to deal with conflict by peaceful means." Trump even clinched endorsements from several Michigan imams.
