The claim departs from the passage: the post says "the last presidential election" and never names 2026, which the extraction added. Sources that describe the vote, including BBC Chinese and Michigan-focused coverage, place it in the 2024 presidential election, so the 2026 framing is not supported.
What was said
… It was specifically because they stood firm and said, We did nothing wrong. We're going to continue our policies. And so, in the last presidential election, she actually cast her ballot for Donald Trump. Oh, really? I didn't just vote. I campaigned for him. I went all out and and told people to vote for him. I was at the mosques. I was on TV. I was telling people to vote for him. Yes, absolutely. Did you think Trump would be better on that issue? …
The Global Story · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Contradicts. BBC News Chinese reports that Luqman voted for Trump's re-election as president and campaigned for him in the 2024 US presidential election, so the vote was not in 2026.[1]
Supports. Coverage from Aryanage and El Nacional, which repeats the BBC account, says Luqman voted for Trump in the 2024 presidential election. These sources are largely echoes of the same report, so they add little independent corroboration.[2][3]
Context. The claimant's own passage refers only to "the last presidential election" (the post is dated 2026-10-20), and the extraction added the year 2026, which the post does not state.
Context. A Newz article dated 2026-08-03 says Luqman voted for Trump "in 2026," but it appears to conflict with the BBC and other reports placing the vote in 2024, and it is a lower-credibility source.[4]
