The Michigan Senate campaign of radical Democrat (pardon the redundancy) Abdul El-Sayed hit a new level of desperation this week when it was decided to pretend he had a debate scheduled with Mike Rogers but the Republican candidate backed out.
Not only that, but a local media outlet played along with it and the Dem accounts proceeded to also lie about what happened of course:
🚨 Abdul El-Sayed is now standing alone on the debate stage, as Republican Mike Rogers no-shows.

This sham was concocted so the Democrats' online purveyors of lies could help spread this narrative around:
It’s pretty awkward that Abdul El-Sayed had to take part in a debate by himself because Mike Rogers chickened out.

Mike Rogers is a coward. pic.twitter.com/tKnh4SMOzA
Nice try, but anybody not actively trying to fool themselves knows there was never a debate agreed to by the Rogers campaign.
There was no debate scheduled …

This just makes Abdul look desperate. :) https://t.co/qOQfoWU9xn
There was never a "debate" scheduled for Fox 2 Detroit. Rogers and El-Sayed have agreed to two debates in October. Fox 2 is just pulling this lame stunt b/c they for some reason think they are entitled to host a debate. https://t.co/WZcsoOgByN

The stunt had the desired effect for El-Sayed's campaign.
Except... There was no debate scheduled, and El-Sayed and the moderator seem to be friends... This was a dumb photo-op... https://t.co/88voID8u5P

🚨 JUST NOW: Michigan Senate candidate Mike Rogers has REFUSED to participate in tonight's FAKE, SHAM "DEBATE" moderated by a Democrat shill named Roop Raj
— Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) September 15, 2026
Raj called Abdul El-Sayed "brilliant," and Hasan Piker is a HUGE fan of Raj
Rogers IS committed to 2 other debates in… pic.twitter.com/fY5Xf1pAgQ
A political debate was going to be moderated by a Democrat superfan? I couldn't be less shocked. At least the Rogers campaign wouldn't participate in what would have definitely been a "two against one" situation.
As a result there was a staged "debate" that went one way only:
FOX: Do you believe that Iran poses a threat to the world currently?
— RNC Research (@RNCResearch) September 16, 2026
EL-SAYED: I believe that Donald Trump...
FOX: Should we finish the job and ensure Iran doesn’t get nukes?
EL-SAYED: I think we should go back to the JCPOA pic.twitter.com/OJuLp4beKC
Abdul El-Sayed, for the third time tonight, REFUSES to condemn Hasan Piker and won't even say it's a mistake to campaign with him. pic.twitter.com/QfIyI52CFd

Even though El-Sayed didn't have an opponent present, one sign that things aren't going well is that he had trouble even answering softballs while he was all by himself:
Abdul El-Sayed won’t answer if he is aligned with the far-Left Democrats who want abolish, police, prisons, and the border.

El-SAYED: "I don't know why you want to ask me those questions." pic.twitter.com/AdVdZ3wb44
El-Sayed answered the question without answering the question.
He won’t answer because the answer is yes. https://t.co/utyDEQoI4o

Bingo!
El-Sayed, along with Talarico and other lefties running for office, has been working overtime to try and hide who he really is. Unfortunately for those radical Democrats the internet exists.
