Donald Trump called. He wants his platform back.
Abdul El-Sayed is running for the U.S. Senate as a Democrat. But listen to his latest campaign commercial, close your eyes, change the accent, and you might swear you’re hearing Donald Trump.
No bad trade deals. End dumb tariffs. Stop the wars. Invest in America. Bring manufacturing jobs back to Michigan.
Sound familiar?
Charlie LeDuff puts El-Sayed’s campaign promises side by side with Trump’s own words. And wouldn’t you know it? The similarities are downright uncanny.
So what’s going on here? Has the Democratic Party finally figured out that Trump’s America First message resonates with working-class voters? Or is El-Sayed just dressing up MAGA economics in a Democratic suit?
Charlie breaks down the promises, the politics, and the peculiar spectacle of a progressive Democrat borrowing from the Trump playbook.
Michigan First? Or Trump First? You be the judge.
