Le président américain Donald Trump violently attacked Abdul El-Sayed, who just won the Democratic nomination for the Senate in Michigan, repeatedly calling him a "Jew-hater" and an "Israel-hater."

Abdul El-Sayed secured the Democratic nomination for the Michigan Senate on Tuesday, despite millions of dollars spent on a campaign by pro-Israel lobbying groups to oppose his candidacy. His victory immediately drew a reaction from President Trump.

On his social media, Donald Trump repeatedly called the candidate a "Jew-hater" and an "Israel-hater," phrases hammered home without nuance in a message of direct attack against the new Democratic favorite in this key state.

The Michigan primary had become a test of strength between the left wing of the Democratic Party and pro-Israel organizations, which had mobilized considerable financial resources to block El-Sayed's path. His victory despite this opposition marks a significant step in the reshaping of the Democratic political landscape.
