"You know, Bill, at the end of the day, I don't go on any show where I agree with everybody. You and I clearly disagree on a number of things, including the war in Iran. To me, it's about speaking to a broader audience."

Abdul El-Sayed defended his decision to campaign with Hasan Piker, a controversial left-wing streamer, during an interview with Bill Hemmer. Hemmer questioned El-Sayed about Piker's past remarks, including comments on 9/11 and the October 7 attack on Israel. El-Sayed argued that engaging with diverse audiences is essential, stating that he does not need to agree with everyone he collaborates with. He compared his situation to appearing on Fox News, emphasizing the importance of reaching broader audiences despite differing views.
