Fear mobilizes…

US President Donald Trump harshly attacked Democratic Senate candidate in Michigan, Abdul Mohammed El-Sayed, on Wednesday, October 7.

In a social media post, Trump called El-Sayed an extremist and terrorist sympathizer. He also accused him of being close to left-wing influencer Hassan Picker, whom he described as a person who "hates America."

At the same time, Trump expressed full support for Republican candidate Mike Rogers, calling him "excellent" and saying he will not disappoint voters.

Trump also referred to the situation in France, arguing that El-Sayed's values ​​do not align with those of the people of Michigan and the United States.

What seems to have particularly worried the US president are the results of a focus group with MAGA voters in Michigan. These are people who voted for Trump in the last election. However, in this survey, they showed significant support for the Democratic candidate El-Sayed, while Rogers did not receive the same support.

The result has caught the attention of Republicans, as the Michigan race could be crucial for control of the Senate. According to polls cited in the article, El-Sayed leads with 48 percent, compared to Rogers' 47 percent.

Michigan is also considered one of the US states with the largest Arab community. In the 2024 elections, many Arab voters supported Trump, in a sign of dissatisfaction with the Biden administration's policies on the war in Gaza.

Former President Barack Obama is also expected to travel to Detroit on October 24 to support El-Sayed. He was among the first major Democratic figures to congratulate the candidate in August and offer his support.

El-Sayed is a doctor of Egyptian origin and part of the progressive wing of the Democratic Party. He has stated that he does not consider himself a socialist.

"I am a capitalist and I believe in a regulated market, as well as a more active state in protecting social rights," he said.

The son of Egyptian immigrants, El-Sayed was born in the United States and has faced a difficult history of integration. If he wins the November election, he would become the country's first Muslim senator.

But Obama's visit to Michigan is expected to bring to light another aspect of El-Sayed's history. In the early years of his political career, he was a fierce critic of the former president.

According to materials reviewed by KFile, CNN's investigative team, between 2015 and 2020, El-Sayed called Obama's presidency a "failure." He accused the former president of continuing wars, restricting civil liberties, and allowing a high number of deportations of immigrants.

El-Sayed had also criticized the country's economic and healthcare systems, arguing that they favored large companies to the detriment of citizens.

Obama's health care reform, known as Obamacare, was also considered insufficient by him. According to El-Sayed, the Obama administration's gradual approach helped create the conditions that later led to the political rise of Donald Trump.

Obama is certainly aware of these criticisms. Yet he has chosen to campaign for El-Sayed, in a race that Democrats consider important.

Even Democratic Party leaders, who had supported Haley Stevens during the primary elections, have now lined up on his side.

It now remains to be seen what Obama and El-Sayed will say behind closed doors./ La Repubblica
