Michigan's far-left Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed showed his true colors Tuesday, launching a disgraceful attack on President Donald Trump during a campaign rally at Michigan State University. The radical Democrat called our Commander-in-Chief Netanyahu's "dumbass" while questioning America's foreign policy regarding Iran.

"Why are we there? There is one country that benefits. One," El-Sayed told his crowd of supporters, clearly parroting anti-Israel talking points that wouldn't be out of place at a Hamas rally. But he didn't stop there – the unhinged candidate escalated his rhetoric, claiming Netanyahu "finally found a dumbass willing to do it," referring to President Trump.

Social media captured the shocking moment as El-Sayed's mask slipped completely. Journalist Jessica Costescu reported on X that El-Sayed asked the crowd "Why are we at war with Iran?" before delivering his profanity-laced insult against the President. When someone in the audience shouted "AIPAC," El-Sayed reportedly "grins and points right back," showing his comfort with anti-Semitic dog whistles.

"Netanyahu has been talking about taking a war to Iran for the better part of 40 years, and he finally found a dumbass government to do it!" El-Sayed declared, according to progressive outlet Status Coup.

This isn't just disrespectful – it's dangerous. Here we have a Democrat Senate candidate openly undermining our nation's foreign policy while using language that echoes the worst anti-Israel propaganda. El-Sayed's comments reveal the growing anti-Semitic wing of the Democrat Party that sees Israel as the enemy rather than Iran's terrorist regime.

What's particularly telling is how comfortable El-Sayed felt making these remarks at a public university, knowing the radical left audience would cheer his attack on both Trump and our ally Israel. This is the new Democrat Party – more concerned with appeasing Iran sympathizers than supporting America's interests.

Michigan voters need to ask themselves: Do they really want someone representing them in the Senate who calls the President of the United States a "dumbass" while echoing Iranian talking points? The choice couldn't be clearer.

As someone from Michigan, I'm embarrassed this guy represents our state. Can we please get some adults back in the room who know how to conduct themselves professionally?

Same here - this kind of talk doesn't represent Michigan values at all.

Trump's Middle East policies actually brought more peace to the region than we'd seen in decades. The Abraham Accords were historic achievements that this guy clearly doesn't understand.

What specifically about Trump's Iran policy does El-Sayed disagree with? The sanctions that were actually working, or pulling out of the terrible Iran nuclear deal that was giving them billions?

This is exactly the kind of unhinged rhetoric we've come to expect from the radical left. No respect whatsoever for diplomatic relationships or basic civility.

Completely agree! They claim to be the party of unity but look at this language.

My son served two tours in the Middle East and Trump was the first president in decades who didn't start a new war there. This kind of disrespect for proven leadership is just sad.
