The Democratic establishment is running scared in Michigan

No primary—especially a Senate primary—should go on this long. But Michigan’s Democratic Senate primary, having dragged on for months, has turned into an interminably vicious grudge fest—one that’s not likely to subside until voters finally go to the polls on August 4 and choose between Haley Stevens and Abdul El-Sayed.

But the Michigan primary is also so bitter for the same reason that it has been so interesting. Of all of the 2026 races, this is the one that best captures the current fissures in the Democratic Party—and which seems to best predict where the fault lines of the 2028 presidential primary might lie.

In recent weeks, particularly after McMorrow’s exit, that race has also been fractious, bitter, and personal. Stevens’s surrogates and backers have argued El-Sayed is too radical and risks alienating swing voters needed to win a seat that is essential for Democratic hopes...

criticizing America’s backing of Israel’s genocide in Gaza

There was no Israeli genocide in Gaza. This is a bald-faced lie declaratively stated as fact. It is a clear example of how our seditious media works.

Abdul will win easily. He will ask to abolish the Senate.

“The Democratic establishment is running scared in Michigan”

No they aren’t. How can they be afraid of anything up there. For them to be afraid, they have to understand or even care about ramification. And they don’t give a skit what anyone thinks or does. Until congress can pass a law on evil, lying, running ponzi schemes, or cheating everyone, it will continue unpunished.

One would think AIPAC would be funding Conservative Republican Mike Rugers from beginning to end, I can’t find that they are, and I don’t think they would switch to Rogers if Stevens wins the Democrat primary

Goigle: “both Dr. Abdul El-Sayed and U.S. Representative Haley Stevens hold progressive positions on LGBTQ+ rights.

Mike Rogers holds a consistently conservative voting record and platform regarding LGBTQ+ issues. Throughout his 14 years in the U.S. House of Representatives and during his current U.S. Senate campaign, he has aligned with traditional conservative positions.Voting Record in CongressMarriage Equality: He historically opposed same-sex marriage, voting in favor of constitutional amendments to define marriage strictly as a union between one man and one woman.Workplace Protections: He voted against the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) in 2007, which aimed to prohibit workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation.Military Service: He voted against the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” in 2010, opposing the policy change that allowed LGBTQ+ individuals to serve openly in the military.”

Google: “Former U.S. Representative Mike Rogers has not received backing from AIPAC for his current U.S. Senate run in Michigan.”

jewish orgs in michigan have already announced they’ll support the Republican if El-Sayed wins the Dem primary ... probably not a lot of votes, but a LOT of money!

They have ways of getting the candidates they want.

See Maine.

Your AI has a somewhat twisted definition of “conservative” if it claims that Mike Rogers is one. He perhaps WAS one, years ago.

Rogers is infinitely better than the radical Mussie “doctor” and infinitely better than the equally radical congresswoman who carries the “establishment Democrat” designation. She’s still totally liberal.

Rogers faked to the right occasionally as a congressman (fearing a primary challenge) and he was OK most of the time. But in his final term, during which he announced quite early that he was not running again, he ran shrieking to the left. Not having to face the voters again emboldened him to show his true colors.

Still, he’s about as good as we can do in Michigan — a real conservative candidate (if one even exists in that state) can’t win there statewide. But then neither can anyone else with an (R) these days, though sometimes it requires an unusually heavy dose of Democrat Vote Fraud to keep their winning streak alive.

Rogers has a hell of a lot better chance of winning in 2026 than either of the Two Stooges (John James, Perry Johnson) who are running hapless campaigns for Governor. How many 3-time statewide losers are active today and running for something (Adam Laxalt and Danny Tarkanian in Nevada come to mind)?

James has a good chance to reach that level this year.

In 2023 he sadly said his personal views on marriage had “evolved”. However, his legislative record and current 2026 U.S. Senate campaign align heavily with traditional conservative opposition to expanded LGBTQ+.

He never went back on don’t ask don’t tell, and the PAC could be spending millions on the best of the aforementioned 3 candidates when it comes to supporting traditional American values (on these issues and on economic issues as well) but aren’t.
