Michigan Democrat Abdul El-Sayed Plans to Use Quran for U.S. Senate Swearing-In

El-Sayed says the plan would cover every American with no copays, premiums or deductibles as he tries to win Trump’s support.

  • On Thursday, Michigan senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed posted mock gold 'TrumpCare' cards to social media, urging President Trump to back universal healthcare covering every American from birth to death with no copays, premiums, or deductibles.
  • Borrowing from Trump's own $1 million Gold Card design, the pitch relies on a strategy Trump's closest aides use to sway his policy decisions with fabricated images. El-Sayed told CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins he is 'absolutely serious' about the branding maneuver.
  • El-Sayed is now actively soliciting support from President Trump despite the president previously branding him a 'terrorist sympathizer' during the campaign. This pivot reflects a broader Democratic effort to prioritize legislative dealmaking over past personal grievances.
  • Trump told commentator Smith he may veto initial bills before seeking deals on healthcare and drug prices. Incoming House Speaker Hakeem Jeffries has also left the door open to working with the administration 'wherever and whenever possible.'
  • Democrats compare Trump's potential legacy to LBJ, yet his willingness to endure extended negotiations remains uncertain. Stephen Miller's selection as White House chief of staff may further complicate the bipartisan opportunities James Talarico and other new arrivals are pursuing.
