Abdul El-Sayed is Michigan’s senator-elect after last week’s midterms. It’s clear the 42-year-old doesn’t have much to offer President Donald Trump, and the same seems to apply to his administration officials. Now, he blasts Stephen Miller, the newly appointed White House chief of staff, branding him a “broken man.”
Abdul El-Sayed made history last week as the first U.S. Muslim senator-elect. The 42-year-old won Michigan’s midterm seat against Mike Rogers, making it a Democratic seat once again.
During his campaign, Dr. El-Sayed has been largely criticized by Donald Trump, not least because of his background as a muslim. For example, the president claimed that Abdul would need to go through a metal detector before entering the Senate floor, as well as calling the doctor a communist.
The fact that President Donald Trump thought it was appropriate to go after Abdul because of his faith, others in his administration followed.
Stephen Miller, Trump’s political advisor and newly appointed chief of staff, attacked El-Sayed in October while appearing on Sean Hannity’s Fox show, claiming that Abdul’s sister had stated their family was a part of the Muslim Brotherhood.
However, El-Sayed has denied any family ties. Miller further described the Muslim Brotherhood as one that had promoted Islamic terrorism and had links to other groups such as al-Qaeda.
Stephen Miller called Abdul El-Sayed a ‘communist candidate’
Moreover, Miller said about El-Sayed, “So you have a Manchurian candidate running in Michigan. Somebody who is allegiance is not to this country, but to jihadist violence and extremism.”
After El-Sayed won the Michigan Senate race, Syephen miller once again went on Hannity on Fox, claiming that the Democrats’ victory was proof that communist candidates were on the rise.
“We spent decades fighting a Cold War with the Soviet Union. I choose my words carefully, but I want to say this—that Cold War has come home. It’s here in America,” Miller said, per the Daily Beast.
The newly appointed Trump chief of staff argued that progressive Democrats winning congressional seats and governorships would threaten the American dream.
The midterms became a disaster for Donald Trump and the Republican Party as the democrats won back both the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Stephen Miller branded ‘on of most trusted advisors’ by Trump
Just days later, on Friday, Donald Trump decided to make changes to his own administration. The president then announced that his chief of staff, Susie Wiles, was leaving the White House.
Meanwhile, Trump also announced that his longtime advisor, Stephen Miller, would take her place.
“I am pleased to announce that Mr. Stephen Miller, the current Deputy Chief of Staff of the Trump Administration, and one of my most trusted advisors, will become the Chief of Staff starting Monday, November 9, 2026,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
He added, “Susie Wiles, who has done an outstanding job, will be moving over to the Trump Political Operation. I want to thank her for her service as Chief of Staff — She has done a great job!”
In a statement to The Hill, White House spokesperson Lauren Bis said that Miller has “spearheaded the administration’s crime crackdown including in D.C. and Memphis, record setting deregulation, unleashed American energy, dismantled drug cartels, and secured our border.”
Abdul El-Sayed blasts Stephen Miller as a “broken man” amid WH job
That not everyone appreciates Stephen Miller or his views is nothing new. But now, after his new role was made public, Abdul El-Saed decided to speak out against him.
On ABC News’ This Week on Sunday, El-Sayed called him the “most broken man.”
ABC News’ anchor Jonathan Karl asked El-Sayed about the “message” Miller’s new role “sends to the country and to your ability to get something done with this White House.”
El-Sayed replied that President Trump had expressed a willingness to work with Democrats and take a more conciliatory approach to tackling affordability.
“…And then he decides to hire the most broken man to continue to run the most dysfunctional White House that we’ve seen, I don’t know what Stephen Miller has actually contributed to our culture, our society in any real way, except for to make us more angry, to stoke the worst kind of fear and vitriol, to weaponize ICE [U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement] in our streets, to take American lives,” El-Sayed claimed.
