Trump has reportedly tapped his daughter Tiffany's father-in-law Massad Boulos, of Lebanese descent, to court Arab and Michigan voters in the key swing state. A pro-Trump super PAC financially backed by Elon Musk was caught showing conflicting ads to swing state voters regarding Harris' stance on the Israel- Hamas War.
