"I get that the president of the United States takes personal offense to my first name," El-Sayed said at a rally in Grand Rapids, Mich. "He doesn't mind as much when it's a shared name from the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving him a $400 million private jet. He just seems to have trouble pronouncing it when it's my name."
