蒂姆·斯科特对埃尔赛义德发起猛烈抨击:“他支持哈马斯,却反对美国”
南卡罗来纳州联邦参议员、参议院共和党选举委员会负责人蒂姆·斯科特猛烈抨击密歇根州联邦参议院民主党提名候选人阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德,称他是民主党向左翼转向的典型代表。他认为这将帮助共和党提名候选人迈克·罗杰斯在11月的选举中占据优势。

【福克斯新闻独家报道】 参议院共和党选举委员会负责人表示,密歇根州选民面临明确抉择:选择特朗普背书的共和党人,或是支持一位“支持哈马斯”的激进进步派人士。
“选择阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德博士,就意味着选择社会主义、马克思主义、共产主义,以及一个看起来就是不热爱美国的人,”南卡罗来纳州联邦参议员蒂姆·斯科特对福克斯新闻数字频道表示。“他唯一不反对的就是哈马斯。他支持哈马斯,却反对美国。”
作为全国共和党参议员委员会(NRSC)主席的斯科特与共和党人正在升级对埃尔赛义德的言辞攻击。上周,埃尔赛义德在密歇根州联邦参议院民主党初选中险胜温和派候选人、联邦众议员黑利·史蒂文斯,成功获得提名。
共和党人正抓住埃尔赛义德过去发表的争议言论,以及他与Twitch主播哈桑·皮克尔的密切联系,试图将其描绘成一名与极端主义势力有关联的极左翼候选人。
密歇根州联邦参议员加里·彼得斯宣布退休后,共和党人认为他们有真正机会拿下这个空缺席位。斯科特与共和党团队将2024年共和党提名候选人前联邦众议员迈克·罗杰斯视为拿下该席位的最佳人选。
“我始终相信好运站在我们这边,势头也在我们这边,”斯科特说。“只要看看当下的实际情况,你绝对绝对绝对会更愿意支持迈克·罗杰斯,而非埃尔赛义德。”
共和党如愿以偿得到心仪民主党对手,社会主义者阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德赢得密歇根州参议院民主党初选
首先,罗杰斯得到了前总统唐纳德·特朗普的背书。特朗普在2024年以仅1个多点的优势拿下密歇根州,相比2020年拜登以约4个点优势拿下该州,形势已发生大幅转变。
与2024年不同,罗杰斯此次无需应对混乱的初选。2024年他曾对阵联邦参议员埃莉萨·斯洛特金,最终仅以2万多票的微弱优势落败。
“两年前,迈克·罗杰斯的竞选举步维艰。他在8月经历了一场耗资巨大的初选,之后又只有60天的冲刺时间,”斯科特说。“这一次,他的资金比以往任何时候都多,地面竞选活动也比以往任何时候都更完善。”
“他是一位强有力、有影响力且积极正面的候选人。他在密歇根州家喻户晓。我们在接近选举终点时将看到,密歇根选民会为了自己的未来、为了美国的未来做出正确选择,那就是选举迈克·罗杰斯,”他继续说道。“另一方面,我要说,另一边的情况并非回到过去,而是进入了一个截然不同的平行宇宙。”

与此同时,埃尔赛义德的处境则截然相反。
他在击败史蒂文斯和密歇根州参议员马洛里·麦克马斯特的激烈初选中胜出,后者在初选前约一个月退出了竞选。
尽管在这场有史以来耗资最巨的初选之一中经费远少于对手,他仍成功获胜,其竞选主张比民主党领导层更为激进,并直接挑战了参议院少数党领袖、纽约州民主党参议员查克·舒默。
获胜后不久,舒默和领导参议院民主党竞选机构的纽约州联邦参议员柯尔斯滕·吉利布兰德开始弥合初选带来的裂痕。
“民主党人有着共同目标:通过击败特朗普的共和党盟友,制衡特朗普,夺回参议院多数席位,”他们在联合声明中表示。“我们期待与阿卜杜勒以及密歇根州各地的民主党人合作,在11月赢得这个席位。”
尽管舒默和民主党领导层并未支持埃尔赛义德,但斯科特认为,他的崛起代表了民主党向左翼的急剧转向,尤其是在本届中期选举周期中,全国各地的温和派民主党人接连被进步派挑战者击败。
“毫无疑问,阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德代表了民主党最糟糕的一面,不幸的是,这正成为民主党发出的最一贯的声音,”斯科特说。
埃尔赛义德的竞选团队未立即置评。

Tim Scott goes scorched earth on El-Sayed: ‘He’s for Hamas, but he’s against America’
Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., the Senate GOP’s election chief, blasted Michigan Senate Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed, arguing he was emblematic of Democrats’ shift to the left. He believed that would give GOP nominee Mike Rogers the edge in November.

FIRST ON FOX: The Senate GOP’s elections chief said Michigan voters have a clear-cut choice: pick a Trump-backed Republican or support an insurgent progressive who is “for Hamas.”
“By going with Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, you’re talking about socialism, Marxism, communism, and someone who seems to just not like America,” Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., told Fox News Digital. “The only thing he’s not against, Hamas. He’s for Hamas, but he’s against America.”
Scott, who chairs the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC), and Republicans are ramping up their rhetoric against El-Sayed, who eked out a win to secure the Democratic nomination for Senate in Michigan last week against the more moderate Rep. Haley Stevens, D-Mich.

They’re pouncing on unearthed hot takes he’s made in the past and his proximity to Twitch streamer Hasan Piker in their quest to paint El-Sayed as a far-left candidate with extremist ties.
Republicans believe that they have a real shot at flipping Michigan’s open seat after Sen. Gary Peters, D-Mich., opted to retire. Scott and company view former Rep. Mike Rogers, who was the GOP nominee in 2024, as the man to secure the seat.
“I always believe that the wind’s at my back, and I always believed that momentum’s on our side,” Scott said. “And there’s no doubt about it when you look at the underlying conditions that you’d much, much, much rather be Mike Rogers than El-Sayed.”
REPUBLICANS GET THE DEMOCRAT THEY WANTED AS SOCIALIST ABDUL EL-SAYED WINS MICHIGAN SENATE PRIMARY
For starters, Rogers has President Donald Trump’s backing in a state that he won by just over 1 point in 2024, a roughly 4-point swing from 2020, when former President Joe Biden nabbed the state.
Rogers also hasn’t had to deal with a messy primary like his previous run against Sen. Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., who eked out a victory over the former House Intelligence Committee chair by just over 20,000 votes.
“Two years ago, it was a slog for Mike Rogers. He had a very expensive primary in August, and then essentially a 60-day sprint to the finish line,” Scott said. “This time he has more cash than ever, a better ground game than ever.”
“He is a strong, powerful, positive candidate. He is well known in Michigan. And so what we’re going to see as we head towards the finish line is Michiganders will make the right decision for their future, for America’s future, and it will be Mike Rogers,” he continued. “I will say on the other side, it is not going to the past, it’s going to a different, an alternate universe.”

El-Sayed, meanwhile, has dealt with the inverse.
He’s just over a week out from a bitter primary fight against Stevens and Michigan state Sen. Mallory McMorrow, who eventually dropped out roughly a month before the primary election.
He emerged victorious despite being vastly outspent in one of the most expensive primaries ever, and after running a campaign that pushed further left than the Democratic establishment and against Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.
Shortly after his victory, Schumer and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., who leads Senate Democrats’ campaign arm, went about stitching together the wounds from the primary bloodbath.
“Democrats are united by a common purpose: putting a check on Donald Trump by defeating his Republican enablers and taking back the Senate,” they said in a joint statement. “We look forward to working with Abdul and Democrats across Michigan to win this seat in November.”
Though Schumer and the Democratic establishment didn’t back El-Sayed, Scott contended that his rise was emblematic of the Democratic Party’s lurch to the left, particularly as moderate Democrats have been felled by progressive challengers throughout this midterm election cycle across the country.
“There’s no doubt Abdul El-Sayed represents the worst part of the Democrat Party, which is becoming, unfortunately, the most consistent voice coming out of the Democratic Party,” Scott said.
El-Sayed’s campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
