Miranda Devine: Don't let Abdul El-Sayed fool you — he and his DSA cronies are in prime position to take over the Democratic Party
Miranda Devine
Abdul El-Sayed is the latest Islamo-socialist terrorist-sympathizer star of the Democrat Party, after squeaking to a win in the Michigan Senate primary Tuesday.
Although he underperformed his poll numbers and the predictions of his media boosters, the lockdown-loving health bureaucrat has accelerated the radical left’s conquest of the Democrat Party from within.
If El-Sayed can pull off a victory in November in the Midwest, in the swingiest of swing states, what will stop a Marxist heading for the White House?
This menacing hard-left takeover is disastrous for Democrats and frightening for America, but it is also a potential golden opportunity for the GOP — if they don’t screw it up, which is nowhere near certain.
El-Sayed has slyly distanced himself from his early roots in the Democratic Socialists of America faction of the party, and declares himself a “scientist” and not a socialist, but nobody is fooled, least of all the DSA.
Like his comrades, he has a vast trove of deleted social media posts expressing his true hard-left beliefs — including defunding the police (and its modern-day version of abolishing ICE) and prison abolition — as he tries to shape-shift into a harmless progressive palatable to the average fair-minded American fed up with politics as usual.
The level of deception skills involved in this metamorphosis has pundits praising him as a “political athlete” and likening him to Bill Clinton.
