Haley Stevens is a “proud Democrat” who bashed GOP candidate Mike Rogersjust this past summer.
So think about how bad Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed must be for Stevens to cross the political aisle and endorse Rogers, the Republican candidate she initially dismissed, for senator from Michigan.
So bad that El-Sayed dismissed an attack on a synagogue full of childrenby blaming Israel, claiming that “hurt people hurt people.”
So bad that when El-Sayed was asked whether Iran or Israel was the greater threat to the US, he answered both.
So bad that El-Sayed refused to denounce an advertisement that blamed Israel for high inflation.
Stevens had begged for El-Sayed to stop blaming the Jewish state for everything wrong in this world, and El-Sayed refused.
So Stevens did the only sensible thing: She is backing Rogers on the eve of Tuesday’s election, warning Michigan and the nation of the dangers posed by Abdul El-Sayed.
The progressives are already screaming, declaring her a “traitor.” But this is not a betrayal. It is a singular act of courage.
Stevens has nothing to gain here. The Democratic machine, which prioritizes winning over morals, will disown her. She’s not looking for a future as a Republican. There is no money, no glory in this. There is only principle.
Haley Stevens hasn’t changed, the party has changed, beholden now to the deranged “Free Palestine” antisemitic mob that cheers the terror of Hamas. She’s tried cautioning the Democrats. She’s tried convincing them. In the end, she came to the realization that so many Jewish-Americans have, to their sadness: The party has abandoned them.
Hopefully her bravery will make a difference with voters this Election Day. Heed her warning.
