According to a former top aide, Michigan Senate Democrat nominee Abdul El-Sayed is basically a child stuffed in a grown man’s body who also happens to be a wind bag. And by that, the aide meant that El-Sayed enjoys ripping farts in public and is nothing more than a “manufactured man” who has the maturity level of teenage boys in a high school locker room.
This is all according to Jordan Domingue, who worked on two of El-Sayed’s campaigns as a bodyguard and personal assistant. In other words, if anyone really knows what the Michigan Democrat is like, it’s Domingue. The absurdity of it all caused Domingue to defect away from the Democratic Party, which is the same story being heard from Democrats in politics across the country in recent years.
“Everything I had previously ignored or excused made it obvious to who he was and that I was on the wrong side,” Domingue wrote in a September 17 post on social media platform X, according to the New York Post. The former aide then said that El-Sayed’s rude behavior is “best explained by the guy who never grew past the high school locker room.”
“His masculinity is a performance, and he has the maturity to match it,” Domingue went on to say, according to the report. Domingue revealed that one of El-Sayed’s favorite things to do is to pass gas in front of his staffers. “He would openly do so without warning or embarrassment as his form of stand-up comedy,” Domingue continued. “To this day for him, the act of farting is easily one of the funniest things a person can do.”
During the time that Domingue served as part of El-Sayed’s gubernatorial and Senate campaigns, he said that he came to see the candidate as nothing more than a “30-year-old leapfrogging into a job he was inexperienced for and only got through connections.” Domingue then said, “Now I’m far from blameless, and will reflect for years how I let myself be captured by loyalty and personality.”
“When he acted like an entitled mobster to elected officials in 2017-2018, I excused it as justified outsider earning their place. When he would say one thing to one group and another thing to a different group hours later, I considered it just the norm or ‘strategic ambiguity’ as he calls it,” the former aide went on to explain.
Domingue also called El-Sayed a hypocrite on the issues of antisemitism and Jewish safety. In a post dated September 9, 2026, Domingue ripped into the Michigan Democrat’s response to a researcher who announced she would be stepping down from Anthropic. He accused El-Sayed of not valuing the safety of Jewish Americans as they face serious risks due to the spread of antisemitism.

“How we change the incentives leading antisemitism in the Democratic Party and protect Jewish Americans against these existential risks are the defining political questions of our time,” he added. Some users on social media questioned El-Sayed’s sexuality after a campaign video featured him dancing to a Taylor Swift track, however, Domingue dismissed those claims as “inaccurate.”
