Abdul-El-Sayed joined Jesse
Watters Primetime last night to "have a good conversation,"
but deflected on almost every issue voters care about.
From claiming Beyoncé would
be happy to pay more in taxes to asking Jesse Watters if he’s circumcised,
Abdul’s jaw-dropping, evasive answers couldn’t have been more of a red flag.
DODGE 1: 56% of Americans
support banning sex
change procedures for minors. What was Abdul's response when asked if he
supports these abuses? "Are you circumcised?"
DODGE 2: Abdul wants to
impose government run healthcare, but he couldn’t even tell taxpayers how much
it would cost.
"A lot less than pay right now,” he said.
DODGE 3: Abdul wants
to abolish ICE yet has no plan to replace the group that deports dangerous,
illegal criminals. He avoided the
question, and replied "Long before we had ICE, we had INS."
DODGE 4: When asked if he supports
reparations, Abdul avoided giving a yes or no once again.
Instead, he called for an "honest conversation about the incredible
debt that was put upon black folks."
DODGE 5: When confronted over his claim that
opposition to Sharia law is rooted in white supremacy, he responded, "I
don't begrudge you your right to practice faith as you choose."
DODGE 6: Abdul has taken down
all his videos about
ending gun rights, but he will always be on record for saying he wishes to scrap the
Second Amendment all together. In the interview last night, Abdul was asked if
he wants to replace the second amendment, and he replied: "I think
more people are worried whether or not they can see a doctor than whether or
not they can have a gun."
DODGE 7: Abdul also previously said that
Colin Kaepernick was a good guy, and the NFL was racist. Of course, no answer
again. "The bigger issue we have for football right now is...ticket
prices,” he said.
"Last night, America
had the pleasure of watching Abdul El-Sayed self-destruct on live television.
When it came to answering for the radical policies he supports, he dodged and
deflected at every turn, which is extremely unfair to the Michiganders he’s seeking
to represent. Abdul may be running for Senate, but after that disastrous
performance, he should be running for the hills instead."- RNC National
Press Secretary, Natalie Baldassarre
