In a December 1, 2024 video on his YouTube channel IslamLife, Richmond, Virginia Islamic scholar Jalal Abualrub discussed Americans who voted for President Trump. He questioned, "You voted for Trump? Why didn’t you just vote for the Devil?" Abualrub also called Mike Huckabee, President Trump’s nominee for ambassador to Israel, a "stinking fanatical Christian." He further criticized ambassador nominee to the UN, Elise Stefanik, for her frequent remarks about Israel. Abualrub claimed that Israeli settlers "look like human beings," but are in fact "the children of the Devil," adding that American settlers are the worst of them.
Jalal Abualrub: "The West Bank has been continuously feeling the pressure by a kind of people who look like human beings, they talk, they walk [like humans] – the settlers. And the worst among the settlers – are the American settlers.

"They are the children of the Devil in so many ways. I didn’t test their DNA, and if they tested their DNA, they will find that so many of them have nothing to do with the Children of Israel to begin with. They just claim: We're Jewish, we're not Israelis.

"By the way, for those who voted for Trump: You voted for Trump? Why didn't you vote for the Devil and just finish? The UN ambassador... The American ambassador to the UN [Elise Stefanik], she has videos all over, [saying]: 'Israel, Israel, we have to give Israel everything – weapons, money, everything [to] Israel.' And the American ambassador to Israel – Huckabee. Huckabee is a stinking fanatical Christian that so many other Christians hate. Decent Christians, they hate these people."
