Somaliland Diaspora in US for Donald Trump & Against Ilhan Omar
Urgent Call to Somalilanders in the USA: Support Donald Trump for 2024 Presidential Election and Campaign Againstu Ilhan Omar
As we approach the 2024 United States presidential election, it is crucial for the Somaliland community in the USA to unite and support the candidate who has the potential to recognize our beloved Somaliland. Project 2025, a comprehensive plan prepared by members and supporters of the Republican Party, outlines a significant commitment from Donald Trump to recognize Somaliland within his first 100 days in office if he wins the election.
This recognition would not only solidify our position on the international stage but also pave the way for Somaliland to secure a seat in the United Nations. It is imperative that we seize this opportunity, especially given the strategic importance of our region and the shifting geopolitical dynamics.
Support Donald Trump:
Mobilize and rally the Somaliland community in the USA to vote for Donald Trump in the upcoming presidential election.
Organize community events, discussions, and information sessions to highlight the importance of Trump’s commitment to Somaliland’s recognition.
Campaign Against Ilhan Omar:
It is vital to recognize the significance of the Senate race in Minnesota. We urge you to support Dalia al-Aqidi in her campaign against Ilhan Omar.
Ilhan Omar’s policies and positions do not align with the strategic interests of Somaliland. Supporting Dalia al-Aqidi will ensure that we have a representative who understands and advocates for our cause.
Spread the Message:
Use social media, community gatherings, and other platforms to disseminate this message widely within the Somaliland diaspora.
Engage with local leaders, community organizations, and influential figures to amplify our call for support.
Together, we can make a significant impact on the future of Somaliland. Your vote and your voice matter immensely in this critical time. Let us come together and work towards achieving the recognition that Somaliland rightfully deserves.
