Michigan Democrats are scrambling to rebrand their radical socialist agenda as they face a brutal Senate primary battle, with Bernie Sanders-endorsed candidate Dr. Abdul El-Sayed leading the charge in what can only be described as political gaslighting on steroids.
El-Sayed, a former public health director who's been compared to New York's far-left politicians, is desperately trying to have his cake and eat it too – pushing the same tired socialist policies that have destroyed cities across America while claiming he's "not a socialist."
Sound familiar, patriots? It's the same playbook we've seen from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who pushes for massive government control over healthcare, energy, and the economy while getting offended when anyone calls her what she actually is – a socialist.
The Left's New Con Game
This is the Democrats' latest strategy: embrace every single policy position that screams socialism – from government-run healthcare to massive wealth redistribution – but throw a tantrum when anyone accurately labels their agenda. They think Michigan voters are stupid enough to fall for this obvious bait-and-switch.
El-Sayed is positioning himself as an "outsider" who wants to "take on the oligarchy," using the exact same rhetoric that Sanders has been peddling for decades. But here's the truth these Democrats don't want you to know: their policies don't fight oligarchy – they CREATE it by concentrating power in Washington bureaucrats and their corporate cronies.
"If it walks like a socialist duck and talks like a socialist duck, calling it a 'progressive reformer' doesn't change what it is."
While President Trump's America First agenda is actually delivering results – securing our border, bringing manufacturing back, and putting American workers first – Democrats like El-Sayed are still pushing the same failed policies that gave us inflation, energy dependence, and urban decay under Biden.
Michigan voters have a choice: continue down the path of prosperity under Trump's leadership, or fall for another Democrat trying to sell socialism with a smile. The question is whether they'll see through this obvious con game before it's too late.
