Republican Senate hopeful Mike Rogers just pulled off a pretty solid flex in Detroit, rolling out a “Democrats for Rogers” press conference complete with actual Michigan Democrats holding signs and vouching for him over their own party’s nominee.
Meanwhile, progressive darling Abdul El-Sayed is still online channeling his inner tough guy — challenging Rogers to debates, football, and apparently now arm wrestling — while the crossover voters keep walking away.
When even Democrats are showing up on your lawn to endorse the Republican, the “blue wave” talk starts looking a little forced.

See?
Mike Rogers out here holding press conferences with Michigan Democrats endorsing him is a pretty impressive flex.

Meanwhile Abdul is furiously tweeting from Hasan Piker's basement about how he can beat anyone at arm wrestling. https://t.co/wtlsjadTHw

This is a big deal, especially in blue Michigan. Seems some Democrats have figured out that the DSA is not their friend, not even a little bit.

Hey, we wrote about this already as well.
El-Sayed is on video SAYING he’d cancel private insurance companies and replace it with government panels telling you where, when, and what kind of care you’ll receive. No choice at all. pic.twitter.com/A5TLTv3jEg

Yes, the DSA sucks. And even Democrats know it.
