Donald Trump supported by Shia?

[scusemyenglish]

Salam,

Today I have seen in the tv a man who seems be a shia behind Trump in his meeting.

You know how we can explain that?

I like Trump too. He wants to return the US to 50-90's era. If he wasn't explicitly racist he would have my full support.

Perhaps because he is very close to Putin in his public praise of the man. Besides it seems to be a rally in Michigan, where there is a larger proportion of Arabs generally, and the race is relatively close there, so some Arabs regardless of religion would support him.

I've seen some Shia who openly support him. As for regular Muslims , Africans, Mexicans, Chinese etc... They're all against him.

[al-Habib]

He might have Shia support because Hillary openly speaks about a ground invasion in Syria to oust al-Asad.

Donald Trump’s rally in Novi, Michigan, on Friday had a guest that caught many observers by surprise. Hovering behind Trump’s head in the fourth row, was a man in a white turban and the traditional dress of a Shia Muslim cleric.
The man was later identified as Lebanese sheikh Mohamed El-Hajj Hassan, who has since received a barrage of criticism for attending the rally given Trump’s inflammatory language toward Muslims, including his call for all Muslims to be banned from entering the country.
Before the rally in Novi, Trump met with Hassan and members of the American MidEast Coalition for Trump – a group working to build support for Trump in Middle Eastern communities – at an event organized by his foreign policy adviser and Fox News pundit Walid Phares.
Hassan was previously a part of Hezbollah, the Shia militant and political group that has been listed as a foreign terrorist organization by the US state department since 1997.
