‘Are You Circumcised?’:Abdul El-Sayed’s Interview With Jesse Watters Was Wild

Democratic Michigan Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed asked Fox News host Jesse Watters point-blank Monday if he was circumcised.

El-Sayed asked the question as they debated whether trans-identifying children should be permitted to undergo sex change procedures during a segment on “Jesse Watters Primetime.”

“You think it’s okay for a parent to slash their kid’s ding-a-ling off?” Watters asked. “You think that’s okay?”

“I mean, do you really want to have this conversation? Are you circumcised?” El-Sayed asked.

“Yeah, yeah, but I mean, that’s a personal question, doctor! Circumcision is different than castration,” Watters said.

Circumcision is the removal of foreskin, while castration is the removal of the testicles, making them different procedures. Many trans-identifying people regretted undergoing these procedures, including de-transitioner Chloe Cole, who said that doctors allowed her to undergo permanent damage while she suffered from mental health issues as a minor.

El-Sayed narrowly defeated Democratic Michigan Rep. Haley Stevens in the Democratic Senate primary after receiving endorsements from independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Democratic Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib. Stevens secured endorsements from the Democratic establishment, including Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Michigan Sen. Gary Peters, South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

El-Sayed campaigned on supporting Medicare for All, abolishing ICE, codifying abortion into law and permitting so-called “gender-affirming care,” according to his campaign website. He repeatedly argued that sex change operations and other procedures for minors should not be dictated by the government.

The further-left candidate rejected the socialist label, stating that he is a “capitalist” who wanted to regulate monopolies and oligopolies.
