Abdul El-Sayed has been the nominee for approximately seven minutes in the Michigan Senate race, and already conservative MAGA Republicans have settled on what they believe is their most potent weapon against him: he is a Muslim with a Muslim-sounding name! When has there ever been one of those in Michigan before?
They know this attack works because the last time they used that weapon against a young, attractive, highly educated midwesterner with a booming voice and a Muslim-sounding name, he was never heard from again. Also they use it because their followers are ignorant xenophobes and racists, and because it’s all they have.
It’s not like white MAGA Republicans have anything else to offer to voters, or to the human race in general.
One of the TPUSA never-nudes is saying ooga-booga words about how El-Sayed is an “Egyptian-descent Muslim man who is part of a larger scheme of the Islamification of America.” OK. Braindead Dan Bongino asserts that El-Sayed is somehow “Islamofascist and a communist at the same time,” because words don’t need actual meanings as long as they make MAGA morons shit their underpants. Joe Gruters, the head of the RNC, says El-Sayed “would have been friends of the guys flying the plane” on 9/11. Benny Johnson called El-Sayed a “dirty bastard” and an “absolute rat” and a “parasite.” Not sure if Russia wrote those words for him.
Ben Shapiro, who still thinks he gets to declare who is and isn’t a Jew, says El-Sayed is a “radical Muslim” and a “radical advocate for Muslims, including terrorists.”
One of the interchangeable white dumbfucks on Newsmax says voters “can’t spell” El-Sayed’s name, and that he is going to do Sharia law to them. (More like Shakira law if you’ve seen the video the above screengrab came from.)
I mean, you name it, and these inbred trash MAGA Americans are saying it, because they’re too stupid and fearful to wrap their heads around the concept of a progressive Muslim doctor who just wants to give them healthcare. And they know this is a surefire way to get their followers to dribble piss out of their pantlegs all the way into the voting booth, because their followers are incontinent racist morons.
Out of all the deranged reactions to El-Sayed, though, for sheer unbridled ignorance and babbling hate, we have to give it to reigning Stupidest Man In Senate History, piggy piggy piggy piggy piggy piggy piggy pigfuck cornpone hick garbage mouthbreather anal lesion Alabama GOP Senator Tommy Tuberville.
Tuberville, completely making up shit, claimed this week about El-Sayed that “The guy was basically a cheerleader for 9/11,” and more, as Jason Kyle Howard reports at Salon:
“I mean, come on,” Tuberville continued, “the country’s changed, but it hasn’t changed this much to put people in [office] that are basically terrorists.”
When I asked if he was calling El-Sayed a terrorist, the senator replied, “I say he’s got the ability to become one.”
On Twitter, Tuberville, who still refers to himself as “Coach” because he thinks it’s cool, as opposed to invoking images of what happens when high school coaches are asked to “teach” an academic class, amplified his comments:
Tuberville, who is currently running for governor of Alabama (like GOP gubernatorial candidate Mike Rogers in Michigan, he appears to be much more of a Floridian), also said this week that Alabama might need to “build a 30-foot wall around” itself to keep out the Islamics.
“I can see it coming, I can hear it coming. You can just smell it out there, that they want to take this country over.”
“They’re a lot more aggressive than we are as Americans,” he said.
Yep, somebody’s got the derangement syndrome.
And Christ, is there anyone alive who’s more of a cucked weenus than an American conservative Christian Republican man?
Speaking of derangement syndrome, there’s a new contender for the most severe case of Mamdani Derangement Syndrome on record, which is very similar to El-Sayed Derangement Syndrome (ED for short) in that both men are young, sexy and make white conservative MAGA types feel very, very insecure.
Rudy Giuliani, it turns out, is not dead yet, and he went on an amaaaaaazing rant this week about the man who has replaced him in the history books as America’s Mayor, now that Giuliani has turned into a demented pile of disbarred dogshit who’s respected by no one.
Media Matters has the video and the transcript:
GIULIANI: He wants to have free, free pre-K starting at 6 months old. Six months old. What the hell is he going to teach them at 6 months old?
How to hate the parents, that’s what he’s going to teach them.
How will Mamdani teach babies to hate their parents? Unclear. Ms. Rachel probably involved, I reckon.
Also Giuliani says Mamdani will teach the babies how to chop their penises off:
GIULIANI: How — hey, did you ever think of being a girl, kid? Not bad being a girl. Come on, it doesn’t hurt to chop your penis off.
Well this is New York, so their woke parents are probably also teaching them that at home.
Anyway, Rudy Giuliani says Zohran Mamdani is going to teach the six-month-old babies to chop off their penises, and that’s a normal thing to believe, definitely.
GIULIANI: Am I kidding or am I not kidding?
Third option that takes into account that Rudy Giuliani’s brain is made of expired pudding?
GIULIANI: Am I being a little crude to make the point? You’re damn right I am. Is it a point that needs to be made dramatically? You’re damn right it does.
Not sure how he’d say less crudely that Zohran Mamdani is going to teach the little babies to cut off their penises, but yes, he is being very dramatic.
From there Giuliani pivoted into a rant about communists and socialists and liberals who have “concept of money” and “who’s going to pay for it!” and all that typical past-its-sell-by-date Republican Boomer shit, as if he hadn’t just made the extraordinary claim that Zohran Mamdani wants babies in pre-K so he can teach them to cut off their chrams.
It made for quite a juxtaposition. Very “Back in my day babies had to push their strollers uphill both ways to Dr. Penis Chopper’s office, and you had to pay for it in cash!”
He came back to it the full weirdness, though:
GIULIANI: Are you doing that so that you teach them how to read and write? That they, at the early age, like the young people of Greece, learn critical reasoning so they can be independent people who can make judgments on their own and not be brainwashed by your communist educational institutions and your communist media?
No. You don’t do that. You teach them that it’s OK to be a transvestite.
Like this?
GIULIANI: In fact, you have transvestites come to school and give lectures to show them it’s perfectly OK.
Mamdani’s New York now featuring Transvestite Career Day!
GIULIANI: And if you want to change your — if you want to change your gender and you don’t want to tell your parents, perfectly — parents are the enemy.
Mom and Dad think their kids still have penises! Hahahaha, DUMB.
GIULIANI: I’m explaining to you Democrat philosophy that is ruining your children. This is the reason that they’re like they are.
You betcha.
So like I said, a new leading competitor in the Mamdani Derangement Syndrome category.
To be fair, though, Mamdani is literally Rudy’s negation, and when Giuliani dies, like all Trump ass-lickers, literally nobody will ever think about him again except to occasionally wonder how he’s doing in hell. (How’s it going, Lindsey Graham?)
There were already a lot of contenders in the Mamdani derangement contest, obviously — that’s an exhaustive link right there — including Fox News guest Sid Rosenberg, who went on Fox & Friends just this weekend and declared of New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani that “This guy is a terrorist. That’s the bottom line, I’ll say it. You don’t want to say it, I’ll say it. He’s a terrorist, he’s a jihadist. He hates the Jewish people. He hates America.” Even Fox News had to apologize on-air for calling the mayor a “terrorist.”
That guy didn’t suggest Mamdani was going to teach babies how to use their safety scissors for elective peener-ectomies, though, so Rudy wins for now.
To be clear, this is who these people are talking about:
And this is who they’re talking about with El-Sayed:
Yeeeeeah, somebody’s got the derangement syndrome. And it ain’t us.
Easy to see why they’re shitting their pants scared, though. We would be too, if we sucked as much as they do.

Rudy’s still alive?
That’s like that guy you run into in the break room and go, “You still work here?“
