Trump backs staunchly anti-Muslim Florida lawmaker to run for US Congress
Briefly

Florida State Senator Randy Fine's endorsement by President-elect Donald Trump showcases a troubling alliance with extremist ideologies that promote division and violence against marginalized communities.
Fine sparked outrage when he celebrated the killing of Aysenur Ezgi Eygi, a US activist, saying, 'Throw rocks, get shot. One less #MuslimTerrorist.' This reflects his long history of inflammatory comments.
Rasha Mubarak, a Palestinian-American activist, stated, 'Fine is a friend to no one except fascism,' criticizing the endorsement as emblematic of deepening alignments with violent, fascist elements.
Fine's history includes multiple anti-Muslim statements, suggesting the US has a Muslim problem and previously referring to Jews supporting Palestinian rights as 'Judenrat Nazi collaborators,' underlining his extremist positions.
