Bleona took to social media to share photos from the meeting, expressing her robust support for the Republican leader. In her post, she emphasized the importance of the Albanian community and its deep-rooted values, writing:
“The Albanian community has always been known for its strong independence, unwavering loyalty, and deep values of honor, God, country, and family. Throughout history, we have stood by those who extend a hand in friendship, and our support for America is no different. Naturally, Albanians are staunch Republicans, drawn to the values of the MAGA movement and the bold leadership of President Donald J. Trump.

In Michigan, the Albanian diaspora has played an important role, but in recent years, many have felt deprived of direction in the country. It is this desire for bold and principled leadership that attracts us to President Donald Trump.
Albanians are hard-working, resilient, and aware of the power we hold in our numbers. When it comes to supporting a true friend, our dedication is unquestionable—and today, that friend is Donald Trump.
Join me today, October 16, for a fantastic evening at the Trump Albanian-American Unity Event! I will be there alongside @kimberlyguilfoyle, @donaldjtrumpjr, @richardgrenell, @malinda_reese_pego, @nikforoakland. This is our moment to unite, energize the movement, and ensure that Michigan turns red for President Trump! October 16, 2024 | 18:00.”
This meeting with Donald Trump represents a pivotal moment for Bleona, showcasing her support for the values she believes the Republican movement embodies. Her commitment and enthusiasm reflect a significant portion of the Albanian diaspora in Michigan, which aims to engage actively in the political processes of the country.
The Significance of the Albanian-American Vote
The Albanian community in the United States, particularly in Michigan, has historically been engaged in political movements, often supporting candidates who resonate with their values and priorities. As Bleona pointed out, many in the diaspora feel a strong connection to principles of hard work, loyalty, and community engagement, which they believe align with the Republican platform.
Bleona’s participation in the event not only underscores her personal beliefs but also serves as a rallying point for other members of the Albanian community. By actively participating in political events and voicing their opinions, Albanian-Americans can influence the political landscape, ensuring that their needs and perspectives are represented.
Conclusion
As the 2024 elections approach, Bleona Qereti’s support for Donald Trump highlights the growing engagement of the Albanian-American community in U.S. politics. With events like the Trump Albanian-American Unity Event, individuals like Bleona are not only expressing their political preferences but are also mobilizing their communities to participate in the democratic process. The outcome of this engagement could significantly impact the political landscape in Michigan and beyond.
