Vice President JD Vance launched a personal attack on Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed, calling him 'crazy' and 'weird' and predicting he would be a 'bad senator' for Michigan, according to Abu Ali Express.
Vice President JD Vance issued a blistering verbal attack on Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed on Saturday, calling him 'a pretty weird character,' 'crazy,' and alleging that El-Sayed has spoken poorly about Vance and his family. 'I think the guy is crazy,' Vance said. 'He'll be a bad senator for the people of Michigan.' The remarks were reported by the Israeli outlet Abu Ali Express.
El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee, has drawn controversy over his positions on Israel and his campaign ties, including to CAIR-linked donors, as previously reported by The Zioneer.
Vance himself has been the subject of criticism from pro-Israel figures, including Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL), who said the vice president's tone toward Israel 'sounded hostile,' as The Zioneer reported in June.
