Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed<\/a> taunted President Donald Trump on Saturday, predicting Trump’s attacks on El-Sayed and his wife would elevate him nationally as he battles Republican Mike Rogers for a critical open Senate seat.<\/p>\n

“Come at us, bro. My wife has more strength than he has ever had. So, come at us. See what happens,” El-Sayed said<\/a> during “On Sunday with Jack Cocchiarella.”<\/p>\n

“I mean, at the end of the day, like, he\u2019s going to turn me into the main character of the midterms, which I\u2019m totally cool with, because my whole argument about Mike Rogers<\/a> is he\u2019s always been an NPC,” he said.<\/p>\n

“Donald Trump<\/a> can\u2019t help himself,” El-Sayed said. “So, part of me is like, ‘Come for me, bro. See what happens.'”<\/p>\n

An NPC is shorthand for a non-player character in video games.<\/p>\n

BIDEN-WORLD VETERAN ISSUES STARK WARNING ABOUT ABDUL EL-SAYED AS HE CROSSES PARTY LINES<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

RNC National Press Secretary Natalie Baldassarre told Fox News Digital Sunday that El-Sayed’s record would put Democrats across the country on the defensive during the midterms.<\/p>\n

“El-Sayed is a jihadi jester, and his record of supporting far-left policies, bootlicking terrorists, killing puppies, and cozying up to radicals who think America deserved 9\/11 will be on full display. Democrats across the country will be forced to answer for his extreme ideology,” Baldassarre said.<\/p>\n

FOX NEWS POLL: A SENATE BATTLE LOOMS IN MICHIGAN<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

A Fox News Poll released Thursday<\/a>, the first survey taken after the primary, found Rogers leading El-Sayed 51% to 47%.<\/p>\n

The contest is among one of Democrats\u2019 most important races as the party seeks to overturn Republicans\u2019 53-47 Senate majority. The winner will succeed retiring Sen. Gary Peters, D-Mich.<\/p>\n

Rogers, who has the president’s endorsement, lost Michigan’s 2024 Senate race to Democratic Sen. Elisa Slotkin by roughly 19,000 votes.<\/p>\n

El-Sayed would become the first Muslim U.S. senator if elected.<\/p>\n

HASAN PIKER TORCHED OVER PLAYBOOK TO DODGE HIS PAST CONTROVERSIES: ‘BATS— CRAZY’<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Trump escalated his attacks last weekend by publishing a Truth Social post<\/a> juxtaposing a photograph of himself and first lady Melania Trump with one of El-Sayed and his wife, Dr. Sarah Jukaku.<\/p>\n

“Two VERY DIFFERENT America\u2019s,” Trump said.<\/p>\n

Baldassarre’s reference concerned El-Sayed’s campaign appearances with far-left streamer Hasan Piker, who previously said America deserved the Sept. 11 attacks. El-Sayed distanced himself from those remarks<\/a> during an April appearance on “Fox & Friends.”<\/p>\n

“Of course, I oppose rape. Of course, I don\u2019t think 9\/11 was justified,” El-Sayed said. “Just because you appear with somebody, doesn\u2019t mean you agree with them on everything.”<\/p>\n

El-Sayed has campaigned<\/a> on abolishing ICE, passing Medicare for All and providing tuition-free higher education. He has described himself as a progressive rather than a socialist.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital<\/a> reached out to El-Sayed for comment, but did not immediately receive a response.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
