It's like he is just making up some weird, dystopian fantasy and trying to convince the others its real. Why should an American have to condemn people and issues that he has nothing to do with....outside of him being of a faith that millions of people share across the globe?
You know, someone...someone soon in GOP leadership is going to have to address the fact that this man is off the rails. Two more years of this dementia-ridden bullshit. Really?
I have to say, I was taken aback. His dementia is talking (as well as his malignant narcissism....)It's like he is creating an imaginary world to soothe his ego.
Yes. And I hope people remember the disgusting tactics levelled against the Dems. I'll never forget nor forgive, and Americans should demand that politicians stop using racist, islamophobic and anti-Semitic tropes as a replacement to avoid talking about their weak policies.
I need to go drinking with this man. This is hilarious! (and true).
Why do people think its okay to take this "advice" a wealthy white man who have never faced economic adversity? This condescending bullshit is not helpful, but they use it to cover up discussing systemic oppression that financially benefits the 1%.
Congratulations!!!!!
Missing our Election Night coverage today for a very good reason 👶🏾🩵. But I’ll be watching and cheering on my colleagues from afar. Hope you tune in also! CNN.com/allaccess
Look, I'm just a middle-aged smuck who has followed politics since I was a wee child from the outside. But I do recognize this as being a very, very bad move during a horrible campaign. There has to be people around him to tell him NO.
WOW. This is so spot on. And I hope it brings a lot of clarity to people who judge folks on their appearance.
This stupid minge thinks she has so much power that she can influence Black voters from not supporting El Sayed. Like someone would consider the views from a woman that called Black women politicians "ghetto bitches." Chile, everyone hates us. But still we rise..#cantstopwontstop
Jesus Christ.
But on the other hand, if you are used to calling Black people niggers behind closed doors, than perhaps this is a real issue.

Breaking my own rule and writing a Twitter essay...
Two days before the midterms, Haley Stevens, the beneficiary of AIPAC’s record-setting $30 million in her primary, appeared with Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers at Perfecting Church in Detroit where she claimed that Rogers would “take on” investing in Black-owned businesses. She then endorsed him.
This attempted ratfuck is galling for any number of reasons, but what disgusts me most is the willingness of these genocidal white politicians to use Black voters as human shields for their racism against Abdul El-Sayed. Rogers has run one of the most racist Senate campaigns this century, and yet, Stevens is now climbing aboard while ostensibly professing concern for Black voters.
This is an instructive moment in understanding why Zionists must be purged from the party: as believers in a supremacist project themselves, they view Black voters as a faction to be weaponized, not as constituents who deserve genuine representation. They are saboteurs in the broader fight for racial justice. A belief in an ethnostate sustained through apartheid, force, genocide, and domination is fundamentally incompatible with an anti-fascist, anti-racist coalition.
Good luck browbeating the Democratic electorate into supporting some pro-Israel corporate centrist in the 2028 presidential election after this saga.
Lady, you had a choice to not say anything at all. You could have voted for Rogers and no one would know. But because the brown "terrorist" wouldn't tap-dance and shuck and jive for you over an ad he didn't have anything to do with, this is what you do?
Let me say something: Jewish people, according to Rogers, are afraid of going outside for fear of anti-Semitism. What about Black people who get harassed because of the color of their skin? For doing nothing, but breathing? And this is somehow Muslim's fault? GTFOH.
Any they are talking about stopping "hate" when Rogers made a racist barb at El Sayed 24 hours ago? Why is it okay for Islamophobia to fester? And Steven says this is a personal decision....so why are you in front of a microphone? Fucking hell.
