Biden is shedding leftist and POC votes, not because Trump is better somehow, but because Biden cannot meet the mimimum level required for support. That's how bad Biden has fumbled the ball.
Trump is not gaining votes if Biden loses votes. For starters, non-voters outnumber any other voting block to begin with, America doesn't have compulsory voting. Therefore, vibes absolutely sway elections, and failing to earn votes means you will lose them.
Finally, if you genuinely believe Trump will gas Arab-Americans and your only plan of resistance is to merely vote for Biden, then you don't actually care. If you do believe Arab-Americans are in danger under a possible Trump regime, then you should be organizing and protesting outside the standard electoral process to ensure that doesn't happen, and protect them on the ground.
Nah, i'm not even from the US. I'm from a country that already had a fascist regime and I see the red flags and people repeating the mistakes my great-grandparents did.
