Wish I could vote for you for Michigan folks. Alas im in Oregon
But also his policies
Policy aside this man is foine
I think everybody wants their children to flourish in America, and to do that they need access to good schools, good health care, good food, clean air and water. We can all agree on this.
nah we LOVE YOU AND OUR COUNTRY! FINALLY REAL PROGRESSIVES
👏🏽
Abdul El-Sayed 🇺🇸🥊🗳️ Keep up the great work for our country.

I like me just fine. I fact, I respect me. Which is why I don't like you.
Such a potent frame: love yourself and vote for YOUR interests…vote for people who prioritize YOU!

Meet these fears head on. Talk about being a Muslim and how that affects your politics.
So many are convinced that you’ll change in office.
I don’t but they’ve been consuming far right slop for so long they choose white man over everyone, every time.
They don’t know how to remove faith from politics
You need people to TRUST you, to represent ALL of Michigan, not just a percentage. Think about Obama. He did his best to represent Democrats, Independents, and Republicans.
So good. Dr. El-Sayed doesn't negotiate against himself.
@ukbibi.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 12:11
Perfect!
Bknubian @bknubian.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 11:32
That’s why you gonna win❤️

People are so use to being lied to endlessly by the politicians and their press that when someone tells the truth and wants to help them, they don't know what to do.
@edonalife.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 07:28
There is absolutely no excuse NOT to vote for Abdul El-Sayed.

Mike Rogers repeatedly voted against allowing Medicare to negotiate lower prescription-drug prices.

Look at his record and ask yourself: does Mike Rogers look or sound like someone who cares about the people he wants to represent?
No!
@cantankerous55.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 05:11
My hero!
Yes. Like yourself enough to vote for issues that will help you. Well said.
@jwingergreendalecc.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 04:02
Personally I’m not a fan of any religions but still, i wish i was the type of man that Abdul is.
@f150-93.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 03:29
Right On!!!👍💪🏼🇺🇸
@incandenzak.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 03:01
so good
@michaelspoint.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 02:36
That's good.
You're the "real real," that's why folks will vote for you.

You confront the American people head-on in deep red states, bcuz you're fearless! Now go on Fox News, extreme Podcasts, etc. Let these far Right-White Christian nationalist hypocrites debate you.🤷🇨🇦
I'm not sure performative propaganda channels should be considered outlets for debate.
@madisonfly.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 01:53
💕
Please come to Traverse City. I want to meet you. Please?
We can have nice things
@unbearablemoment.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 01:22
We need healthy & strong mind like yours!
AD @web71.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 01:19
Wow !!
What confidence and 'aura', dare I say.
Sad, that person's bigotry about you and your religion, but atleast he's starting to see the light.

Keep going Abdul.
Sending love and hugs from across the pond here in UK 💙💙💙🫂🫂🫂
Kim Sherrell @web.kim · 20/08/2026 00:57
So good!
The rizz
that's quite enough of that
I love this! Yes! These people (including my own parents) need to stop voting against their own self interests. I don’t know if they believe the leopards won’t eat their face too or if it is ignorance, but hopefully meeting them where they are to talk will help them to understand
Beautifully said.
I'm so glad you have tough skin, that kind of comment would really bother me. Thanks for staying in the fight for us.
@steve3797.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 00:05
THIS! THIS! THIS! 1000 TIMES THIS!!!
Bravo well said.

Hey Abdul, big fan, quick question though. When you played lacrosse in high school do you ever remember playing against Waterford United? If so, I may have gotten a concussion from you and I think that's just neat.
ey I just watched a video clip with the speech you gave, you are truly excellent, and long overdue.
humble tip tho..you're not "going to build a movement",
*you are* a movement MOVING FORWARD. Bernie Sanders never got this..we're not hoping and striving, we're thriving,
👉 'join the winning team'
one other thing, and I say this with much respect and love,
ya needst to lose this 'money in our pockets' gag, it's not just getting old fast, it's kind of juvenile for adults, and kids don't vote 😜

that said, huge props for "pathology" in our politics, Dr. El-Sayed hehe 👑😻🚀
Elyon113 @elyon113.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 22:40
My most esteemed congressional candidate, you dropped this good sir! The people need you to smoke a Fattie for them!
Stashes @l0stashes.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 22:36
I mean...thats pretty crazy though right? I remember being hit in the head and banned from eating lunch with a few coworkers because my boss found out I was an Atheist. I was humiliating. (no i don't work there anymore).
@rbus39337410.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 22:26
Every debate must feature the words "child molester" and "Epstein cover-up." Particularly if they bring up the child molester’s trans-mutilation line, but even stronger if they avoid it knowing what you have planned. If they avoid it, that’s when you know you really have to bring it up.
I’m with this kind of politics.
@momofanangel.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 19:39
Typical maga
🤣🤣🤣
Goodness. The level of racism from that guy towards you is unfortunate. Too bad he can’t let that go and like you for having common goals instead of focusing on different religions.
Obviously, you're not looking for MAGA votes.

Good for you.
lol yes maga for sure doesn’t like themselves
Rob Wolfe @rob-wolfe.com · 20/08/2026 09:22
You watched the video? That guy he talked about would absolutely have described himself as MAGA otherwise. I see them a fair amount here in NC
@rbus39337410.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 21:40
Just like the trans and homosexual comments, Democrats need to hit back with it’s bad to be trans or homosexual but ok to be a child molester and then name-drop every high-profile Republican and J6er who has been arrested since it became a fad when Trump was exposed as being a child molester.
🎯
This is a great line.
@asteraceaeg.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 20:56
Wow, a politician who understands it’s *their job* to educate & communicate with constituents & not just expect them to fall in line.
🤯 👏🏼 🙌🏼
Kaze @kazephantom.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 20:54
"I'm! 👏🏼 Not! 👏🏼 Going! 👏🏼 To! 👏🏼 Pre-negotiate! 👏🏼"
FUCK YES! THANK YOU! We need more Democrats like you who aren't afraid of actually fighting for things.
I don’t understand disliking someone over identities like that. Wild 💩. Fear is a killer.

I mean, do these Christian’s see what they’ve done? Why was that okay? Still okay? Not at all what JC told them. Do they even know he’s a prophet to other belief systems?

Pardon my lack of eloquence, but you're just so freaking cool.

I wish we had more people like you in the Alabama government who would care about their constituents.
@scorpion233.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 21:58
It's not the government. It's the people who voted for the government.
@halfsou.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 20:46
Muslim is the new Catholic. And if you're as old as me, you get this.😋
this is a fantastic advertisement. Well done!
He’s so good at this.
Well, I like you!
We argue about who will pay for the healthcare instead of having the conversation no one is having- that it doesn't matter who pays for it if the healthcare available is crappy. Just ask anyone with chronic illness, doctors don't do their jobs yet still get paid- more unethical than welfare fraud.
The medical system is the only industry in the USA that does not provide a pricing menu. Even the auto industry at least gives an estimate. Billing departments refuse to reveal costs before procedures, before the bill occurs. The closest you can get is the CMS database for the region. It's all evil.
When we trace the history of the corrupt medical system it goes back to the Knights Hospitaler. Much of the problem is that hospitals are privatized by profiteers. Many countries have successful public hospitals. The price-gouging is absurd. An xray, mri, and a bandage is $50,000 in an ER in AZ.
Reminds me of this clip from 10 years ago. You don’t need to like the candidate, vote for your self interest and the best interest for the future of the country.
From Oprah…

@zee23out.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 20:11
We need about 300 people like you in congress.

Well, yes 60+ and 240+

@abdulelsayed.bsky.social the road to winning Detroit is winning over the Detroit clergy. Their congregations hold the pastor in high esteem. The next key group are the young college attending or college graduate Detroiters.
Sally @eilidgh.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 19:59
I really like this guy. You’d be a fool to pass him by, you really would 😀
I need better candidates and Abdul is proof they exist. The DNC needs to support them or stand down.
👏
You’re pretty hard not to like.
💯 It is what your representative does to ensure your tax dollars are used for you/family/neighborhood’s benefit, not their personality, ethnicity or religion that matters.
🫶👊

Its a good sign that im crying. Also though, im drunk… still a good message and sign tho

He reminds me of Predident Obama who was one darn fine President. #RepublicansLieAboutEverything
#VoteOutEveryRepublican
@human333777.bsky.social · 29/08/2026 03:10
No, much better. Obama was good for his time but far too willing to give away the store to Republicans, in some lame bid to get Rs to Iike him. He squandered a Dem supermajority on Larry summers and corporate healthcare
@helendbs.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 19:20
💯🥳🥰
CLE @leecle.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 19:20
Like yourself & want better for YOU.
@anxiouspepper.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 19:19
That's all! Stop voting against your own needs and interests just because you have been told all your life to vote against your own interests just to hate someone else... Stop cutting off your noses to spite your faces.
That's a great message
Linda @unewme.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 02:32
We need someone like him for PA. We are stuck with two giant assholes, McCormick and Fetterman. Neither are for the people.
@steve3797.bsky.social · 20/08/2026 00:06
The oldest trick in the book and it still works fine ..
👏🏻🙌🏼👍🏻
I like you SO MUCH!
Like yourselves, people.
Vote for
Dr. El-Sayed
for Senate

This is our future Senator. 👍

god I wish I could vote for this man
I and my husband can and have. When I listen to him, I hear Obama!
T
Same. I was able to vote for him when he ran against Gretchen Whitmer for the dem nominee for governor. Now, I think Big Gretch did a fine job, especially during covid, but about the only way I'd move back to MI would be to vote for Abdul again.
Deepend @deebot375.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 21:11
That's okay, I will in your honor!
This man 💙👍🏾
Jack @jackanory.bsky.social · 19/08/2026 19:05
Wow, good line... "i don't need you to like me, I need you to like you"

So true. The trump supporters have been shooting themselves in the gangrenous foot for decades.
I like you!
I like me too!
Can I like you just because?
Hard to argue with....
