At a campaign event outside of Detroit, GOP Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas attempted to tie Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed to the Muslim Brotherhood — a claim El-Sayed has repeatedly denied.
“My nickname for the guy is the jihadist leprechaun,” Cruz said about El-Sayed.
Cruz later said that El-Sayed would get top-level security clearance as a U.S. Senator if elected, claiming that El-Sayed could be put on the Senate Intelligence Committee, “and if I am correct that he is a passionate supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood, there is a very real risk that Americans will die as a result.”
These racist Republicans have nothing to fearmonger about him, so they use his “scary-sounding Muslim name”. Dude’s actually a boring, dependable guy who just wants to govern and try to do the right thing…
Abdul is an example of the ideal “American Story”. Sports captain in high school, Rhodes Scholar, doctor, community leader, public servant. Dude’s jacked and attractive, he’s just not white. MAGA is trying to get people to ignore all that and focus on his name/faith.
It’s upsetting that this is a close race. Racism truly has people in a chokehold.
My nickname for the guy is
Nobody <clap> gives <clap> a fuck.
Trump is obsessed with belittling people with mean nicknames. But they are fucking tired and you don’t have a tenth of Trump’s brazenness to be endearing. Fuck off to whatever country you hole up in while your state suffers climate disasters, you toad-faced suppository.
That’s my nickname for you, Ted.
"and if I am correct that he is a passionate supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood
You’re not, Ted. Fuck off back to Cancun with your incest porn.
Racist slander.
Getting real hard to believe any MAGAts when they say they aren’t racist.
“Oh I don’t watch the news”
But you know their Facebook feed is at 140% font size and filled with absolute garbage
Wait… El-Sayed is irish now?
this is getting entertaining.
Take your pills, Rafael.
I prescribe the cyanide flavour.
So for voting, pretty much anyone MAGA hates should get a checkbox. Got it.
