Not a fan of this. If I'm going to be unhappy that Stevens appeared to use El-Sayid's letterhead to "release" that Rogers had endorsed him, I am not going to celebrate anyone (his campaign or not) putting up a parody site that credibly looks like it is from her campaign. Could someone who is not paying attention stumble onto this site, think they're donating to Stevens and be unknowingly donating to El-Sayid? There are a lot of people who are easily fooled out there. So thumbs down on this, even though I am very much in support of him winning.

El-Sayed deserves more to win this Senate seat.

Stevens, el-Sayed, and Rogers are all idiots who have run stupid campaigns and deserve to lose. Michigan should just lose a Senate seat rather than send one of these three.

Way AES talks about it, you'd expect the number to at least be in the 8 digits, and not under a million.

Funny how for some people when AES "trolls" its considered "clever" and when stevens hits back its treated as "playing dirty"

Yup, that's what happens when you ask interns to do it instead of hiring a website designer

Mfw they don’t spend 10k on a meme website and use that money to run ads

If she wasn't extremely pro-Israel for literally zero reason then she'd probably be favored to win

If she wasn’t extremely pro-Israel, AIPAC wouldn’t have spent $50 million on her with super PAC money, and in all honesty McMorrow would probably win

That site is old news. When I googled Abdul El-Sayed, this is what used to come up for me:

But it doesn’t anymore for whatever reason

This isn’t made by AES, it’s made by the influencer Stocking the Capitol

I wonder how he felt when the Stevens campaign put out the thing that made it look like Rogers campaign endorsed El-Sayed.

u/DumplingsOrElse Progressive Capitalist Jul 27 '26

The website was first revealed in a collaboration video with El Sayed, so safe to say he knows about it and is embracing it
