Original: Abdul El-Sayed responds to Trump’s attacks on his name | CNN Politics
Michigan Senate candidate and physician Abdul El-Sayed has publicly responded to President Trump's attacks targeting his name, widely read as an attempt to question his background. El-Sayed, a Democrat running for the US Senate, pushed back by embracing his identity and framing the remarks as divisive. The exchange is drawing attention as a flashpoint in the 2026 Senate race and over immigration- and identity-tinged campaign rhetoric.
Why now: A high-profile clash between a leading Senate candidate and Trump over identity-based attacks is unfolding in a closely watched race.
