Phillip: "Piker said America deserved 9/11. Are you comfortable with that?" Bernie: "No, I think that was a dumb statement. But he has lots of followers. We have to get above cancel culture." "We need a big tent. And I think people like Piker should be welcomed into that."

WATCH: Bernie Sanders, speaking out of both sides against his mouth, says he's uncomfortable with Abdul El-Sayed's closeness to Hasan Piker given his statement that America deserved 9/11. Bernie dismisses as a "dumb statement" inevitable in a lengthy stream and calls for getting above cancel culture. Bernie says if James Carville doesn't like the party of Piker, El-Sayed and Sanders, he can "start his own party." AIPAC, AI, "we need a big tent" and "people like Piker should be welcomed into that, certainly." ABBY PHILLIP: Let me ask you about one of those campaign events, because just last night, um, the popular but very controversial streamer Hasan Piker was at one of El-Sayed's final events. The two did a stream together, a fairly lengthy stream. I know that you've spoken to Hasan Piker in the past, but are you comfortable with El-Sayed having a close association with him, given some of his past statements? To give you an example, one of the more controversial ones is that Piker has said America deserved 9/11. Are you comfortable with that association? BERNIE SANDERS: No, I am not. I think that's a dumb statement. On the other hand, he has a whole lot of followers and there's a lot of things that he's saying that are making sense to a lot of people. I think, you know, we have to get above cancel culture. You know, when you're doing radio, whatever they do- podcasts three hours a day, you say dumb things. I suspect if you go back over your career, there may be 1 or 2 things that you said that you may have regretted. But I think what we have got to do is look at the totality of where people are coming from. Uh, and go forward. PHILLIP: So when someone like James Carville says he doesn't want to be in the same political party as Hasan Piker, which one are you going to take? SANDERS: Well, that's not much of a choice. If Mr. Carville doesn't want to be in my party, the party that I belong to, that Piker, that El-Sayed belongs to, he can start his own party. But, uh, you know, look. What we are doing now is, you know, you can turn the tables around and say, do you really want to be in a party where your leadership is taking huge amounts of money from AIPAC, which is supporting an extremist Netanyahu government that many of us believe have committed genocide? Do you want to be in a party with people who do that? Do you want to be in a party which has not stood up to the AI industry, because they got a lot of money from AI or from crypto? So you could pick, you know, you could pick whatever you want to pick. But I think we need a big tent and I think people like Piker should be welcomed into that, certainly.

Stephen MIller: In El-Sayed, you have somebody who courted the endorsement of this heinous, deplorable, monstrous Hasan Piker. To have someone running for senate who's going to associate with that kind of evil?

Cain: Does Hasan piker reflect your vision? El-Sayed: I do think it is kind of crazy when you have the likes of Donald Trump on this show, who says he wants to grab people by certain body parts, Donald Trump who wants to weaponize a paramilitary force, do you agree with everything Donald Trump has said? Cain: The idea that because I interview President Donald Trump is the same as you campaigning with Hasan Piker is absurd. Let me ask you would you invite president Donald Trump on the stage with you? El-Sayed: I would love to debate him on stage. Cain: You’re playing a slick word game.

Michigan Dem Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed declined to disavow any of Hasan Piker’s views as the two joined forces on the campaign trail. “This whole gotcha game … cancel culture, I thought we were over it,” he told our Adam Wren. El-Sayed added that hesitancy to engage with left-wing surrogates like Piker is why Dems "too often fail to get our message out.”

El-Sayed: He's a streamer. I'm focused on trying to win a race. He's got his perspective on it and he's welcome to his perspective. It's not mine. My perspective on it is that you have to ask for every vote. Q: Do you intend to continue to campaign with Hasan Piker? El-Sayed: I'm focused on campaigning in this state, all over the state. I'm not as focused on who I'm campaigning with.

🔥WILL CAIN PRESSES ABDUL EL-SAYED ON HASAN PIKER — AND HE STILL WON’T GIVE A STRAIGHT ANSWER After campaigning with left-wing extremist Hasan Piker — the same Hasan Piker who once said America “deserved 9/11” — Michigan Senate candidate Dr. Abdul El-Sayed was asked directly whether he agrees with him. Instead of clearly condemning Piker or explaining why he’s campaigning alongside him, El-Sayed dodged, pivoted to Trump, and attacked “the media.” Will Cain wasn’t buying the word games: “You campaigned with him.”
