Michigan senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed says he would vote for ‘Trumpcare’ for all

(Gray News) - Michigan senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed, a Democrat, said Tuesday that he supports “cradle-to-grave” healthcare and would vote for “Trumpcare” for all.

El-Sayed made the comments in an interview with CNN anchor and chief White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins.

“Donald, if you’re watching, we can put your name on it. I know you like to put your name on stuff. You can finally meet the unmet promise in America to guarantee everybody healthcare, so it’s on the table if you want to do it,” he said.

El-Sayed said he wants everyone to have healthcare in America and what it is called is a secondary issue.

“If we’re able to guarantee everybody cradle-to-grave coverage without a co-pay, a premium, or deductible ... I think that would be a win. So if he wants to call it Trumpcare for all, like, I’m game,” he said.
