Michigan black leader rejects El-Sayed as ‘snake oil’ salesman in undercover video: ‘Just flat-out disdain’
NY Post ^ | 10/31/26 | Gabrielle Fahmy

A black leader in Michigan — who’s been dubbed Al Sharpton’s “little brother in the movement” — is rejecting Democratic Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed, blasting the radical candidate as an untrustworthy “snake oil” salesman and saying there’s “flat-out disdain” for him in the community.

Charles E. Williams II, Michigan chapter president of Sharpton’s National Action Network, lambasted El-Sayed’s lack of cultural credibility in undercover footage that lays bare the dilemma facing black leaders torn between their aversion toward El-Sayed — and the community’s expectation they vote blue no matter what.

“You can’t pluck the heart strings of people selling them all of the pie in the sky, that’s not realistic,” Williams said in a video taken outside a meeting at his historic King Solomon Missionary Baptist Church last Saturday and obtained by The Midwesterner.

“You can tell people ‘Medicare for all’ and ‘money out of politics,’ how you going to do it? You ain’t no majorities. You ain’t got no executive branch. You put together legislation and you’re going to send that to Donald Trump, he going to sign that? No!” he exclaimed.

“So you just selling snake oil …. That’s the real issue that I have with the so-called Democratic Socialists and super progressives anyway,” he went on, getting increasingly wound up.

“You selling wolf tickets … You will not get that across.”

Blacks all across the Midwest, and also PA are fed up with Illegals. They saw that the Great Replacement is replesing them.

I always wonder if ICE ever got around to going after all those illegals who used to work the mushroom farms in Kennett Square. It used to be nothing but illegals there.

Trump just said he’s worse on blacks than he is on Jews.

The Obamanation of Desolation is going to be very DISPLEASED with African American voters rejecting the Islamocommie plantation owner!
Too bad Barack, they are no longer slaves and no longer slaves to your snake oil Islamocommie Party! They are SMART….and enlightened.
Hallelujah, and thank you God!

Bingo. The white communist and Muslim alliance has pushed black Christians and Jews out of the big tent. Hopefully it will rebound to Trump’s favor. Fingers crossed.
