The Michigan Senate hopeful fires back after Trump demanded metal detectors in Congress if he gets elected.
President Donald Trump has mentioned Abdul El-Sayed throughout the midterm election campaign as a Democratic candidate who would be “dangerous” for the American people to elect to Congress.
He has slandered his name throughout the last three weeks on the campaign trail all over the country.
But El-Sayed has not held back either when he has commented on the president. And over the weekend, the Democratic hopeful for the Senate seat in Michigan issued Trump a challenge.
El-Sayed wants to make a deal with the president
Trump has used vicious and downright racist rhetoric towards the candidate who happens to be a practicing Muslim. Trump has said that the Senate should put up metal detectors if he gets elected because Trump believes El-Sayed is a criminal.
El-Sayed struck back by challenging him on some of his own scandals during a speech this weekend.
“He [Trump] said I should go through a metal detector. But here’s the deal, Donald: I’ll go through a metal detector if you will sit for a lie detector. I got nothing to hide! You got so much to hide! My first question, Epstein. Second question, did you win the 2020 election? So that’s the deal: I will go through a metal detector every day if you sit through a lie detector one time,” El-Sayed said to rancorous roars.

It is obvious that the Republican Party is very afraid that El-Sayed is actually going to win on Tuesday. Perhaps that is why the administration was successful in getting the endorsement of Haley Stevens, the Democratic candidate that El-Sayed beat in the primary, for El-Sayed’s opponent, Republican Mike Rogers.
‘JV Dance’
Abdul El-Sayed was not done attacking the administration during his speech. He also had a new nickname ready for Vice President JD Vance.
“You know there is always someone that is thirsty for attention. They keep sending that Ohio State Buckeye here. What is his name? JV Dance. They keep sending JV here. […] JV has zero charisma. They taught him that at Ohio State. When your school mascot is like a nut, what do you expect? JV Dance,” El-Sayed said to great cheers from the crowd.

El-Sayed is referring to Ohio State, which Vance attended. El-Sayed himself is a graduate of the University of Michigan, and the two schools are bitter rivals.
