“We know he will fight for the economic interests of working families in Michigan, unlike Mike Rogers, who is a tool of Donald Trump and billionaire donors.”
Democrats across the party’s ideological spectrum—in Michigan and around the country—rallied behind US Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed after his erstwhile primary opponent, Rep. Haley Stevens, endorsed Republican Mike Rogers two days before a race that could decide control of the upper chamber.
While Stevens claimed in a CNN appearance Sunday night that she’s “been hearing from a ton of Dems” privately voicing support for her decision, she received nothing but backlash from fellow Democrats in public. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), who quietly supported Stevens in her primary contest against El-Sayed, said that “this is a despicable betrayal from Rep. Stevens.”
Hmm. Maybe she did it to get Democrats to rally behind him.
I wonder if Haley endorsing Mike Rogers was actually the most beneficial thing she could do for the El-Sayed campaign, after all.
Rip bozo regardless
It’s like that thing in fiction where people become villains to unite the world against them. I will remember your sacrifice, Haley Stevens; rest in piss.
At first, I didn’t think that this would move the needle much, but after seeing the level of backlash this close to the election, I’m betting that if there’s any effect on the election results, it will be in El-Sayed’s favor. This has caused a lot of people to rally around him in Support, while she has absolutely torched any future political career for herself.

She really no longer had a career anyway if she lost. She was out of the House in January no matter what as soon as she decided to run for Senate.
She didn’t have the national name recognition for anyone to give a shit about her after she left. So her option was basically become a lobbyist. And this is her audition for her existing donors to prove she’s willing to do what they want when they want it.
Huge spike in donations too

Haley Stevens did the “who’s coming with me” scene from Jerry McGuire, and the only person that followed her was her israel obsessed boyfriend.
We’re going streaking!!
Haley just giving courses in how to wreck your political future in one easy step
Fetter-woman!
Good for them! They should do the same for ilhan.
So…Haley endorses Mike Roger’s political positions and therefore Trumps positions? I’d like to ask her that.
Don’t worry, Anderson Cooper asked her last night in one of the most unhinged interviews I’ve seen in a long time (4:53 for a question about her now agreeing with Mike Rogers)
That, right there, is a Saturday Night Live skit.
I thought the exact same thing! The facials ticks, the thick northern Midwest accent, the clicking nails on the desk, the absolute nonsense statements…
She’s from fucking Rochester Hills; no one sounds like that there.
She has fucking lost it.
That’s maybe the most unhinged thing I’ve seen this week that wasn’t Donald Trump saying anything.
Nothing she says makes sense, she’s rambling all Trump-like
Seems a bit like she’s having a breakdown
Hilarious. What a shitbag.
When even Schumer reads the room better than you. How’s the underside of the bus looking?
