A head-turning new "Michigan First" ad from @AbdulElSayed - he names some issue he agrees with MAGA voters on, then plays a supercut of Fox News hosts/Tucker praising him or bashing Mike Rogers. semafor.com/article/10/23/…

@daveweigel @AbdulElSayed If there’s one thing that’s true of El-Sayed, it’s that he is a Michigan nationalist

@daveweigel @AbdulElSayed You can tell apolitical athlete by how many different attacks are used until they are no longer politically viable. First it was divisiveness of aipac, then it was black voters, then it was Hassan Piker, then it was socialist, and now we’re at the last stand: Muslim.

@daveweigel @AbdulElSayed People who fucking hate AES have a lot of thoughts on how he presents himself. Also, they don't understand irony?

@daveweigel @AbdulElSayed I have this suspicion that El Sayed is going to end up doing sneaky well with noncollege whites. I'll probably end up being completely, embarrassingly wrong about that. We'll see.

@daveweigel @AbdulElSayed It’s like the second Dems find a winning tactic and message that resonates, yall want to shut it down.
It’s like you want to lose.

@daveweigel @AbdulElSayed Tucker Carlson has no credibility with thinking people, David. It will likely drive voters to Rogers.

@daveweigel @AbdulElSayed This man is a raging liar. He's running on take millionaires out of politics? He just spent time campaigning with the Soro's family, introduced him as recipient of their scholarship in 2012 they paid for his education. He owes Sorro family.

@daveweigel @AbdulElSayed I don't see anyone on the left of losing their mind with AES using right wing talking point and fascist framing such as Michigan first.
Turns out they do care about winning elections and are willing to make compromise to get there.

@daveweigel @AbdulElSayed Bragging about being endorsed by a guy that says Churchill was the bad guy and Hitler was the good guy should be amplified by Rogers

@daveweigel Like most of his media, it's focused more on how clever he thinks he is than on selling a message. It's also too choppy. I see this losing voters, not gaining them.

@daveweigel @mattyglesias @AbdulElSayed If Mamdani weren’t so busy making his own TikToks as he tries to run NYC, I’d say he must have loaned out his comms staff to El-Sayed.

@daveweigel @Taniel @AbdulElSayed Sounds desperate.
Not sure a capitalist would be bringing in Bernie Sanders and having him voice outtakes in his previous ads.
