00:02I actually do not care what you think or the questions you ask.
00:04Michigan Senate Democrat candidate Abdul El-Sayed freaked out after getting asked a question today.
00:10Let's watch that clip.
00:11Are you registered to vote in the city of Michigan?
00:14Are you registered to vote?
00:15So why would I care to have a conversation with you?
00:17This is going to me.
00:18Why would I care to have a conversation with you?
00:20I'm a journalist.
00:20I'm a journalist.
00:20You're just in the UK.
00:22You know how many votes I want to get in the UK?
00:23This election.
00:24I am never running for office in the UK.
00:26But this election matters.
00:27This election matters to the world.
00:30I mean, that's so aggressive and nasty.
00:34And that is not the first time that we've seen him act that way.
00:37He freaked out at somebody at a town hall who was a Michigan voter and got really annoyed
00:43that he was being asked about potential ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, which is like a
00:47valid question that maybe an average voter would want to know about.
00:50He freaked out at Brett Baer and said, be a journalist during an interview.
00:54And I feel like if you're in the sort of dating phase, you know, that's what campaigning is.
00:59You're trying to woo voters.
01:01And then once you actually get into office, then you're going to kind of like let your
01:04hair down.
01:05So if you're already this toxic and aggressive, I can't even imagine how nasty he's going to
01:12be if he wins the Senate office.
01:15You're bidding to be a senator.
01:17A senator in where?
01:18What country?
01:18What country?
01:19In the United States.
01:20And what country are you in?
01:21The leader of the free world.
01:22What country are you in?
01:23I'm based in the United States.
01:24No, no, no.
01:25But you report for where?
01:26Where are your viewers?
01:27Where are your viewers?
01:28They're international.
01:29No, no, no.
01:29Why are your viewers?
01:30Sky News is not viewed in the United States of America.
01:33It's only viewed in the UK.
01:34We have an international audience.
01:36So I'm just going to tell you.
01:37Abdul, is your election not relevant?
01:38I've answered all the questions.
01:39Is it not relevant to the UK?
01:40I've answered all the questions.
01:41Is your election not relevant to the rest of the world?
01:43For viewers in the United Kingdom.
01:44Is it not relevant to the rest of the world, Abdul?
01:45So I'm going to ask you to stop chasing me around.
01:46Please.
01:47Abdul, I'm not chasing you around.
01:48I'm asking you questions.
01:50He spooks me a little bit.
01:51And I also think it's interesting that, you know, Donald Trump is always criticized because
01:55he's an enemy of the press.
01:57And yet, like, this seems to me to be harassment, intimidation of a reporter.
02:02And it's not the first time that we've seen that from Abdul El-Sayed.
