Abdul El-Sayed asks Jesse Watters 'Are you circumcised?' while defending sex change surgery for minors

Key Points:

• Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed engaged in a contentious interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters, where he asked Watters if he was circumcised while defending sex change surgeries for minors.
• El-Sayed argued that government should not intervene in transgender medical procedures for children and compared this to circumcision, which he also described as surgery on children.
• Watters criticized El-Sayed’s stance as “wacky” and “sick,” and pressed him on whether he supports boys playing in girls’ sports, a question El-Sayed avoided, emphasizing that sports governance decisions should be made by relevant authorities.
• During the interview, El-Sayed declined to disclose details about the cost of his healthcare proposal, the US budget size, and his comments about the NFL being racist, while expressing mixed views on immigration enforcement and ICE.
• El-Sayed will face Republican Mike Rogers in the upcoming midterm Senate race in Michigan, following a primary win over mainstream Democrat Haley Stevens, with prominent Democrats endorsing him to unify the party for the general election.
