Abdul El-Sayed: ‘My Name and My Background Aren’t Raising Your Gas Prices’ From the Trump Administration’s Economic Policies

RUSH EXCERPT:

EL-SAYED: “Well, I’ll tell you this. Every time J.D. Vance opens his mouth, the first two things I can think is, man, that guy is boring. And second, Peter, Peter Thiel had to spend a ton of money to get that man elected, barely in the state of Ohio. Now, you know, I’m from Michigan and we got issues with people from Ohio, but this one in particular, I took somewhat confusedly, because here’s the thing about it. He’s painting this picture of going back in time to talk to his papa about me. Now, why is he pointing to me? Why is Donald Trump pointing to me, pointing to me to try and say that somehow I’m less American than they are now? What does that have to do with. I don’t know the color of my skin, how I pray, but the confusing thing about it is that he thinks that there are some people who are more American than others because they can point to their papa who was here earlier. And my question to him is simply why is it then, how do you look your parents in law in the eye and say that somehow they’re less American than you are? Because that’s what he’s implying there. But bigger picture. This is about trying to change the channel. They’re trying to dissuade us from actually paying attention to the issues that we see laid bare.”
