Vance Slams Senate Hopeful El-Sayed as 'Very, Very Evil' at Michigan Rally

Vance said El-Sayed sympathized with the March synagogue attacker and tied him to Hasan Piker, drawing backlash from Jewish voters and Democrats.

  • Vice President JD Vance attacked Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed on Monday during a campaign rally in Sterling Heights, calling him 'very, very evil' while supporting former Rep. Mike Rogers.
  • El-Sayed sparked the confrontation Monday by mocking the 'Vance Bromance' with Rogers at a press conference, triggering laughter from Congresswoman Mallory McMorrow and explosive social media reactions.
  • Vance accused El-Sayed of sympathizing with the March terrorist attacker who targeted Temple Israel in West Bloomfield and associating with Twitch streamer Hasan Piker, who claimed America deserved 9/11.
  • In a post-rally statement, El-Sayed called Vance a 'sock puppet' from Ohio and Florida, vowing Michiganders would reject divisive rhetoric and support his campaign this November.
  • While El-Sayed voiced regret to Jewish Democrats over the weekend, Vance questioned his sincerity and suggested his response revealed his true intentions for Washington.
