Muslim-Ruled Michigan City Bans Pride Flags

Liberals Voice "Sense Of Betrayal"

Liberals who cheered when a Michigan city elected America's first Muslim-majority city council are now voicing a "sense of betrayal" after the council voted to ban LGBT Pride flags from city property. 

In 2015, Hamtramck, Michigan -- a Detroit suburb and former Polish and Ukrainian enclave -- put itself in an international spotlight when Muslims were elected to four of six city council positions. As the Guardian recounts, liberals rejoiced:

"They viewed the power shift and diversity as a symbolic but meaningful rebuke of the Islamophobic rhetoric that was a central theme of then-Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s campaign."
