.... Lashing out against the Democratic Party, Asra Nomani said she was sick of people being branded bigots and racists by the left for expressing genuine concerns.
Ms Nomani, a life-long liberal and Muslim woman, said she voted for Donald Trump because the US needed a policy change and someone who was not afraid to take on Islamic State.
Speaking to Fox, the 51-year-old mother said: “I have policy problems with the Obama administration.
“As a Muslim, I believe that the left has sadly lost our fight against the Islamic State by refusing to talk about the Islam in Islamic State.”

In the article, she wrote: “This is my confession — and explanation: I — a 51-year-old, a Muslim, an immigrant woman ‘of color’ — am one of those silent voters for Donald Trump. And I’m not a ‘bigot’, ‘racist’, ‘chauvinist’ or ‘white supremacist’, as Trump voters are being called, nor part of some ‘whitelash’.” [Daily Express] Read more
