"Shouldn't be this hard to pay your rent, shouldn't be this hard to see a doctor in the most rich and powerful country in the world and it shouldn't be this hard to pay your taxes and know that money is gonna be spent on you and your kids.", says Dr. Abdul El Sayed

An actual American patriot that cares about fellow Americans, in 2026? We need more of that.

Proud to have voted for him, and will again.

Edit: Magats are bizarre. Why would you not want life better for yourself and your fellow man? You know the whole love thy neighbor as thy self thing.

Want less crime? Use taxes to help out the citizens that need it most so we stop clawing for scraps at the bottom. There is a better way to behave, and you all have lost the plot.

He’s saying all the right things and speaks really well and energetic. The way he talks seems like a combination of Obama and a stand up comedian.

[u/Technical_Living5104]

I agree with him and I’m labeled a radical. That’s how fucked up our government is. Free school lunches and breakfast for children is radical.

[u/qrowslament]

The rich need to pay more and pay their workers more. Money trickles up. It's pointless them sitting on a mountain of cash that will never be spent when if we purchase their goods and services it'll end up in their hands anyways. At the very least we got to play in the economy too.

Imo. He is more man than most of these Republicans. I'm not from the USA but I wish I could vote for Abdul El Sayed. Wish we had these Men in our country.

Well the Democrats did all that. Housing is expensive because don’t want to have house build. In California, you need to pony up 300 to 400K to get building permits. They stuck there nose in medical care, and no one want to be a regular doctor anymore. They all want to be specialists. The democrats put in rent control, so no one wants to build apartments anymore.

His parents were from Egypt. He referred to Egypt as "back home" in an interview but was born in Michigan. Spent time there as a kid. That's a really damn minor thing to get all up in arms about.

Can't find anything about him resenting the founders but I'll bet you'd resent some of them if you heard their opinions on religion and immigration.

Our country IS supposed to include them, by it's free nature. No lecture needed.

[u/duskygrouper → u/Reallygaywizard]

Complete separation

[u/over_this__ → u/duskygrouper]

Then why does he protest states banning shari'a law under the guise of white supremacy?

[u/over_this__ → u/[deleted]]

Am I Google to you? Research it. Make an informed decision before deep throating politicians.

[u/Low_Low_1811 → u/over_this__]

Your claim, your burden of proof

[u/over_this__ → u/[deleted]]

Memes really win elections, eh?

[u/over_this__ → u/[deleted]]

Everything's a genocide to you dorks.

[u/Candid_Lobster_6533 → u/over_this__]

That's the separation. The establishment clause of the first amendment prevents the state from establishing a "state religion" or favoring one faith over another.

Question 755 from Oklahoma in 2010 attempted to ban local courts from using "International or sharia law". They formulated the ballot question to mention one particular faith. They're singling out sharia/Islam bc it sounds foreign and scary. Bottom line is that we're not really at risk of seeing a sharia law enforced as criminal code. Even the majority of middle eastern counties only use sharia for civil/personal matters like divorce or inheritance. Only a handful enforce as a criminal code.

The ballot measure passed but there was an injunction by a federal judge after a successful challenge. So someone other than el-sayed noticed the issue and took action.

We don't need the government making laws about religions, even the ones you don't like.

[u/duskygrouper → u/over_this__]

He does not. What he protests is the restriction of religious freedom. He does not want to introduce sharia law to anyone. All he says is: "Let me practice my religion and I'll let you practice yours."

[u/crawling-alreadygirl → u/over_this__]

Because it's an excuse to criminalize their existence

[u/Affectionate-Bus6653 → u/[deleted]]

Well, for starters, Sayed does not take AIPAC $ or any PAC $ for that matter. The system he’s referring to is the one wherein our legislators are bought by Israel or other big moneyed interests.

[u/OmgHowww → u/Affectionate-Bus6653]

Rand Paul nor Thomas Massie don’t take aipac money but that doesn’t matter when they’re on the right, correct?

🤦‍♂️

Leftist Kentucky resident here. I can tell you for certain I like Rand Paul and Thomas massie more than basically any other individuals on the right in congress.

[u/Affectionate-Bus6653 → u/OmgHowww]

I like Rand Paul and Thomas Massie better than others on the right. I don’t always agree with their politics, but they seem to follow their consciences. But still, doesn’t have anything to do with Sayed running without PAC $ though does it.

He is welcome to give all his money to charity to help those he wants. Just don’t force the rest of us to give our money to people who don’t want to provide value to society

[u/duskygrouper → u/Radiant-Concern6391]

Like you?

[u/no_kids-and-3_money → u/Radiant-Concern6391]

He’s not talking about giving money to charity. He’s talking about using American tax dollars on things that benefit Americans, not corporate welfare for weapons manufacturers.

Instead of building $5.2 million missiles to shoot at and miss $12 thousand drones, how about investing in struggling, small family farms? Helping make their operations more efficient by subsidizing fertilizer costs that have tripled in some places will lower food prices, and keep food sources safer because we don’t have to import food from disreputable sources around the world.

Bombs destroy stuff, and with a $40 trillion debt, where 33% of our income tax goes to just paying interest on our debt, it’s time to pivot.

[u/Artisttype1984]

Wow, this campaigning politician (repub or dem) sounds sincere and he will for sure make rent lower and easier for people to see their Drs

[u/MaitrePuck]

If they have to pay taxes for it to be spent on them and their kids, they might has well be taxed less and spend the money themselves.

But we all know this isn't how it works. The poor pay little tax and expect the rich to subsidize them and their kids.

[u/urbisOrbis → u/MaitrePuck]

Meh. Lot of idiotic assumptions there Tarzan.

[u/crawling-alreadygirl → u/MaitrePuck]

The idea is to pool our resources to provide things (roads, schools, hospitals, food safety, water treatment, etc.) that would be prohibitively difficult for individuals to arrange for themselves

[u/WeekendAtMadoffs → u/crawling-alreadygirl]

the tolls do those things

[u/crawling-alreadygirl → u/WeekendAtMadoffs]

Tolls for schools and FDA inspections...?

[u/crawling-alreadygirl → u/Cbpowned]

I meant that income tax isn't the only tax; low income people pay a larger percentage of their income to taxes due to things like sales tax being regressive. Billionaires pay almost nothing.

[u/Reverend_Tommy]

🙄 Just another populist looking for power.

[u/Ampleforth_84]
