“We still grouped ourselves in the old groups: liberal, conservative, Democrat, Republican, and so forth. But those words had been mostly sapped of their meanings.”

This speech is proof that there is no serious Islamophobia in America.
One cannot imagine a Jewish candidate, even a religious one, leaning so hard on Hebrew and religion in a speech for national office. it would be electoral suicide. Everyone would scream "dual loyalty" and "not really an American." It is inconceivable.
Yet a Muslim Senator-elect leans into it as the basis of his identity, arguably ABOVE being an American.
There might be some bigotry against Muslims in the US, but this speech itself proves that antisemitism is far more ingrained.
