President Donald Trump sparked a firestorm late Tuesday night with an endorsement of a House candidate in Michigan — and his shocked fans on Truth Social let him have it.
“It is my Great Honor to endorse Amir Hassan, who is running to represent the fantastic people of Michigan’s 8th Congressional District!” Trump wrote.
“Amir Hassan has my Complete and Total Endorsement to be the next Representative from Michigan’s 8th Congressional District — HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!”
His MAGA followers were not happy — Despite campaign literature in which Hassan says “Jesus Christ is his Lord and Savior,” followers raged at Trump for endorsing a Muslim.
“What does it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his soul,” one Trump supporter wrote. “No political gain is worth insulting our Christian faith. No Muslims in America. No Muslims in office.”
That was a common theme in the comments under Trump’s post.
Trump supporter Conita Drew wrote a 542-word reply.
“Have you lost your mind, endorsing Muslim candidates,” Drew wrote. “What has happened to you? You are not the man that I voted for three times, you have no wisdom whatsoever where Islam is concerned.”
“Honestly??? Why????” ranted “Proud conservative” Kimberlee. “Do you think there are already too many foreigners in congress??? Don’t you think enough is enough at this point????”
“THATS A HARD NO FOR ME. NO MUSLIMS IN OFFICE PERIOD!” stated JeffV4JC, who claims in his profile, “Jesus Christ is my God and, Donald J Trump is my President.
”JoniMarieForLiberty warned, “YOU ARE BEING MISLED, President Trump! This guy is a snake in the grass. Muslim and never voted for a republican in his whole life. Moved to Michigan last summer and immediately filed to run for office. Thank you for your attention to this matter!!”
“His name gives me pause. Call me racist 
but I am merely being cautious. Obama comes to mind,” advised “Loyal Trump supporter” Billie.
Mad1Macs was short and to the point, writing: “NOPE.”
