Abdul El-Sayed, the US politician and Michigan Senate candidate, is drawing enthusiastic reactions after an exchange in which he effectively shut down a troll during a public appearance. Supporters online described the moment as a master class, praising him for taking the gloves off and ridiculing his opponent in the exchange. Commenters framed it as evidence of a tougher, more combative style ahead of election season.
