@japdmedia26: Monroe, Michigan, USA 🇺🇸 — A heated exchange has added fresh drama to Michigan’s 2026 U.S. Senate campaign. Vice President JD Vance attacked Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed during a rally in Monroe on Thursday, calling him a “little weasel” and accusing him of focusing more on foreign conflicts than on Michigan residents. El-Sayed responded later that day at a rally in Marquette. He reminded the crowd that he graduated from the University of Michigan and used the famous rivalry between Michigan and Ohio State to fire back at Vance. “You can take your Buckeye and shove it somewhere else,” El-Sayed said. He also challenged Vance to stop lecturing him about America after coming from Ohio. The exchange comes as El-Sayed faces Republican Mike Rogers in Michigan’s November 3 U.S. Senate election. Both campaigns are competing for support in a closely watched race that could influence control of the Senate. Who won this verbal clash? Was El-Sayed’s comeback effective, or did Vance’s attack make the stronger political point? Share your thoughts below. #AbdulElSayed #JDVance #MikeRogers #Michigan #japd
