The victorious Muslim representative turned to Trump: From now on, you just have to call me Senator! Abdul Rahman Al-Sayed, the winning Democratic candidate in the state of Michigan, addressed Trump:
Donald, look, I know you had a hard time pronouncing my name. So, after J. Dee Vance was sworn in to represent me in January, you can just call me "Senator" from now on. During the election campaign, Donald Trump repeatedly made al-Sayed the target of harsh verbal attacks for his support for Palestine and his opposition to the war against Iran.
