BREAKING: "I am everything he fears!" Dr. Abdul El-Sayed mocks Trump's failed presidency and his disastrous Reflecting Pool "renovations" in a scathing takedown.
This man is EXACTLY the kind of fighter that Democrats have been praying for...
"People in Michigan can't afford their groceries. People in Michigan are paying $5 for gas. People in Michigan are struggling to pay their rent," El-Sayed said during an appearance on journalist Jim Acosta's podcast.
"And this man, he got elected to office saying he was gonna fix all that, but instead he kicked off a war to raise our gas prices even higher," the Senate candidate continued. "He's busy trying to figure out the colors on the drapes or fix the Reflecting Pool, which he can't even do. And so yeah, he's going to try and fearmonger about me, but the question really is about him."
"Every single day he talks about me, we're winning, because at the end of the day, I am everything he fears," said El-Sayed. "So we are going to stand up to him. We are going to take him on."
"We are going to subpoena all of his officials."
"We are going to fight for the affordability that he doesn't even care to fight for."
"We're going to get money out of politics."
"We're going to put money in your pocket."
"We're gonna pass Medicare for All, and we're gonna beat his handpicked Republican, Mike Rogers," he concluded.
This is what a winning message sounds like. El-Sayed is absolutely right that Trump talking about him will only help him win. Every time that the so-called President lobs some unconvincing "communist" smear at him or pushes some cheap Islamophobic attack, it gives El-Sayed a spotlight to fire back, and then pivot to talking about kitchen table issues.
Because the truth is, Donald Trump doesn't care about affordability. He's dismissed it as a hoax and now spends all of his time obsessing over his White House ballroom, or his ugly gold statues, or his Reflecting Pool screwup.
Meanwhile, Democrats like El-Sayed are talking about affordable healthcare, childcare, and housing. They're talking about cutting off funding for Israel's genocide in Gaza so that we can spend those tax dollars here, helping working-class people. They're talking about things that really matter to voters.
And that terrifies Republicans.
Please โค๏ธ and share if you could picture Dr. El-Sayed running for President one day!
BREAKING: PREACH! Progressive commentator Jennifer Welch brings down the HAMMER on Republicans for fearmongering about El-Sayed and Zohran โ says the "real bogeymen" are "white, crusty" men like Trump.
This woman is on fire with these takedowns...
"They're terrified that middle America is going to find out who the real boogeyman is. And the real boogeyman is not the brown-skinned Abdul or the brown-skinned Zohran," Welch said on her podcast IHIP News. "The real boogeymen are white, crusty, pink-arm Republicans like Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk."
"These are the people that don't give a fuck about you. They never have and they never will. The whole communist scare is total bullshit!" she said.
We couldn't agree more on that point. Trump is running the most corrupt White House in American history. He started an illegal, failed war with Iran to forward Israel's national interests, he's covering up his role in the Epstein scandal, and the economy is in tatters. He has no policy to run on, so all that he can do is point at Democrats calling for affordable healthcare, living wages, and childcare and screech "COMMUNIST!"
It's the oldest, most tired trick in the Republican playbook and they lean on it hardest when they've run out of options. It's a mark of desperation.
"These people, every single time they have the keys to the car, they drive it off a cliff," said Welch. "No matter who the Republican President is, they do it time and time again. Yet, so many Americans say, well, I gotta vote my pocketbook. Well, your pocketbook at the end of a Republican presidency is always a disaster. Always!"
"Everything always happens according to script," she continued. "They cut taxes on the rich, which increases and balloons the national deficit. They start wars, which increases and balloons the national deficit, which exacerbates inflation. It's a shit show."
"It's FUBAR beyond all comprehension. And the parasites at the top keep sucking, keep sucking, keep sucking off of it. And they blame the people who absolutely can't suck off of anything for all of the country's problems," she added.
At this point, if you vote Republican and you're not a billionaire looking for more tax handouts, you're voting against yourself. The MAGA movement has nothing to offer average Americans beyond lies, war, and economic suffering. It's time for this country to wake up.

BREAKING: HE'S GOT NOTHING! J.D. Vance thrashes about like a hog in the mud after Abdul El-Sayed torched him as "Peter Thielโs boy" with that "Ohio charisma" and comes up short.
Our utterly charmless Vice President is in way over his head...
โIs that Peter Thielโs boy with that Ohio charisma heโs got?โ Dr. El-Sayed said after Vance falsely attacked him for wanting to "flood" Michigan with "low wage immigrants."
โThat guy. I think weโve had enough of him," he added. "The last thing that he said that made any sense was โHillbilly Elegyโ, after he said that Donald Trump had no business being President of anything. That was the last time he made sense, and then he decided to suck up to power.โ
The remarks struck a nerve with Vance precisely because they're so accurate. Vance owes his entire political career to Peter Thiel, the neofascist, anti-humanist billionaire who welcomed him into the Silicon Valley capital network, financially backed him, and pushed him into Trump's orbit. This is the same Thiel who, when asked directly, struggled to say whether or not he wants the human race to continue.
Vance may as well have been grown in a vat to represent the interests of the tech oligarchs and their democracy-destroying agenda.
As for that "Ohio charisma," you need look no further than his response to El-Sayed to see how truly inept he is at winning over votersโ
โHeโs just kind of an odd guy, but I think that itโs telling that instead of talking about what he wants to do to make the lives of Michiganders better, he takes personal insults at me. Iโm the Vice President, it comes with the territory,โ Vance told Fox News, responding to El-Sayed's brutal salvo.
โI think the guyโs crazy and would be a terrible senator for the people of Michigan. Weโre going to make that case, and obviously the people in Michigan are going to make their vote,โ he added.
Odd guy? Crazy? That's the best you've got, JD? El-Sayed cut you to your core with his barrage and you're trotting out tepid, nonspecific barbs?
More importantly, Vance is lying. El-Sayed isn't fixated on the Vice President. He was asked about Vance's attack on him, responded, and moved on. His Senate campaign is, in fact, laser-focused on the kitchen table issues that Michiganders care about. He's calling for implementing Medicare for All, taxing billionaires, affordable housing, ending support for the genocide in Gaza, getting money out of politics, and rebuilding American manufacturing.
Republicans like Vance are the ones who don't want to talk about the issues because all they have to offer is a failed war with Iran, the Epstein coverup, and a failing economy.
Please โค๏ธ and share if you think El-Sayed would mop the floor with Vance face-to-face!
@JoeBiden You are older (by a lot!) and wiser than I am about a great deal of things. But this I know - sometimes life is so cruel and sharp. Sometimes the juxtaposition of pain to all the good and beauty can feel so out of balance.
Your suffering pains me, as I know it does so many others. You are a good man, a man of heart and grit.
Thank you for your steady hand in the winter of 2021, and beyond. For the loyalty to your President and friend during a spectacular eight-year tenure. You were a really good VP. You know how to have someone's back. It's a quality that is exceedingly rare to find in America's politicians these days, as you know better than most.
You've had one hell of a big life, Joe. Please excuse the familiarity of me addressing you that way. You were my President for four years, but you are always Joe to me.
I honor you today, as a great President, a loyal VP, but even more importantly, as an absolutely precious and marvelous father. You really raised the bar there. You are one of the very best ones, Joe.
And I would know.
