Far-left Senate candidate clarifies 'ogre on a pike' remark

Abdul El-Sayed, a Michigan Democratic Senate candidate, refused to apologize for referring to Senator John Fetterman as an "ogre on a pike" during a debate, a metaphor critics condemned as violent and sexist. El-Sayed stated he was criticizing Fetterman’s political shift but did not retract the remark, which was made during a donor call discussing his national ambitions and potential future primaries. The controversy also involved accusations of sexism against his female opponent, Haley Stevens, and drew political backlash from both parties.
