Michigan Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed said Sunday that Democrats will work with Donald Trump to help the American people if “he wants to act serious,” but if the president instead chooses “foolishness,” the incoming senator said he will not find a willing partner in Congress.
“Let’s talk about how he is an unserious fool. Think about this war in Iran that every single president had resisted fighting because, of course, it was a dumb idea,” El-Sayed told ABC “This Week” in an exclusive interview. “Let’s talk about the foolishness of a tariff war with Canada. … Let’s talk about the foolishness of gutting Medicaid to pass tax cuts for the richest people in America.”
“So look, if he wants to act serious, we are happy to work alongside him to actually address these issues,” El-Sayed continued. “He is the president of the United States. But if he wants to continue to fool, he will hire people like Stephen Miller to run the White House, and he gets to choose where he goes next.”
Nothing says “serious” more than appointing cunt Miller as chief of staff and trying to appoint UFC cunt as a press secretary.
I understand the “optics” but they should really just ignore orange cunt.
Unfortunately, we cannot ignore the president, as much as I’d love to. The man has so much power because of his office that ignoring him is unfeasible; he must be directly opposed.
Abdul El-Sayed is not saying that he would compromise with fascists; he is saying that he will directly oppose the current MAGA plan. He is also calling the president a fucking moron in a politically correct manner.
A dementia patient is very unpredictable. Throw enough bills at him and he may inadvertently sign one. Doesn’t hurt to try. I doubt they actually expect anything out of it. If anything, it just shows how they are the adults in the room.
State of the Union next year could be glorious!
I honestly wonder if Trump will even make it to his next SotU, depending on how far the new Congress gets with stomping on all his priorities, as well as putting him and his family under empowered committee microscopes with no majority to block, prevent, or soften any of it.
The thing about narcissists is that very little damages them personally, but whatever does tends to be really crippling, and the blowback from a pissed off nation is just getting started.
