Why the Left and the Right Are Both Courting Islam. And Both Will Regret It

from Making the Argument with Nick Freitas · host Nick Freitas

The Left supports Islam because they see it as a religion that faces unfair treatment. Some on the Right, including Tucker Carlson, are now trying to gain favor with Islam for very different reasons. But here is the thing, as strange as it may seem, what could the Far Left and parts of the so-called America First Right really have in common with Islam? And is there an important question they have overlooked before trying to connect with Islam?
