Since they couldn’t find a Muslim mom who voted for Trump, Zaiba recruited her husband, Zafar, to return to the podcast for this episode to help understand the 35% of Muslims surveyed by the Associated Press who said that they planned to vote for Trump--and probably did. It was CLOSE, y’all! Could the Muslim vote afford to be so split? What are the reasons that it wasn’t a landslide with 100% of Muslim Americans voting against the current POTUS?

Zafar does a great job calming Zaiba and Uzma down in this episode to demonstrate that 35% of Muslims voting in a way we don’t understand isn’t so significant, statistically or historically, and diversity of opinions is considered a blessing in Islam. Does everything he says resonate with your favorite podcasting duo? NO! Hear about white grievance vs. privilege, the right to return, the Democratic party’s role in turning away the Muslim vote through doublespeak, and the silver lining in having lived through the last 4 years under this administration.

Tune in for the discourse! “All dialogue is good dialogue,” as Zafar Hasan says.
