President-elect Donald Trump has once again proven he knows how to pick winners, naming Lebanese-American businessman Dr. Massad Boulos as Senior Advisor on Arab and Middle Eastern Affairs. Naturally, the left is already losing their minds over this savvy selection.
“Massad Boulos will serve as Senior Advisor to the President on Arab and Middle Eastern affairs,” Trump announced on TRUTHSocial. “Massad is an accomplished lawyer and a highly respected leader in the business world, with extensive experience on the international scene. He has been a longtime proponent of Republican and Conservative values… Massad is a dealmaker and an unwavering supporter of PEACE in the Middle East. He will be a strong advocate for the United States and its interests.”
Boulos, who has deep ties to Arab American communities, played a crucial role in Trump’s successful outreach to this often-overlooked voting bloc. His efforts, especially in Michigan, helped flip many Arab Americans who backed Biden in 2020 but became disillusioned by his administration’s failures on Israel, Gaza, and Lebanon. Trump’s ability to win over key demographics like this terrifies Democrats, who’d rather assume these voters are locked in their camp forever.
Boulos isn’t just a polished diplomat. He’s a billionaire businessman with connections in Nigeria and Lebanon, giving him a global perspective that is sorely needed to navigate the complexities of Middle Eastern politics. Despite his ties to controversial figures, Boulos’ ability to engage across political factions, including those linked to Hezbollah, underscores his diplomatic prowess.
Of course, the left will seize on these connections to paint Boulos—and by extension, Trump—as a threat to global stability. But let’s be real: under Biden, U.S. foreign policy has been a punchline. It’s Trump who brought us historic peace deals like the Abraham Accords. With Boulos at his side, expect more groundbreaking achievements in the Middle East.
The Democrats are already panicking over Boulos, but that’s only because he represents everything they fear: competence, coalition-building, and results. While Biden alienates allies and emboldens enemies, Trump is bringing a seasoned, results-driven team to the table.
This is what leadership looks like—an unapologetic focus on American interests, peace through strength, and the art of the deal. The left can cry all they want, but under Trump’s leadership, the Middle East is poised for more stability than the Democrats ever delivered.
