It was Trump’s first term. Anti-Muslim hate was rising, and he was running as himself, unapologetically. He lost that race. Today, he’s leading one of the most closely watched Senate primaries in the country despite tens of millions of dollars being spent to stop him. Watching this conversation again, I was struck by how little he’s changed. Sometimes history doesn’t create leaders. Sometimes it just takes the rest of us a little longer to catch up. #Shorts #Politics #Michigan #AbdulElSayed Uk3jHEG2o4X GyAS5D26tlz 1pi01dBIBBN 2FnE08aWnWM
