Fox News host mocked to his face in fiery on-air exchange with candidate

Fox News host Will Cain was confronted in a fiery exchange with Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed during a live interview on Tuesday.

Cain had asked if progressive influencer Hasan Piker, who has campaigned and promoted El-Sayed ahead of the August 4 primary, reflects his vision.

El-Sayed then pushed back.

"My vision is one where every American can afford their basic dignities and a good life," El-Sayed said. "My vision is one where you can get healthcare when you need it, my vision is one where our government is not wasting your taxpayer dollars dropping bombs on other people's kids and instead it's investing with you and your own. So far as I share that with anybody, I share that with Hasan, I share that with you, if that's what you do believe in."

The Democrat then asked Cain a question of his own, flipping the script.

"But I do think it's kind of crazy when you have the likes of — I don't know — Donald Trump on this show," El-Sayed said. "Donald Trump who says he wants to grab people by certain body parts. Donald Trump who wants to weaponize a paramilitary force against the Constitution itself. Do you agree with everything Trump has said?"

Cain appeared surprised and angry with El-Sayed's question.

"OK, we'll move this conversation in a productive manner," Cain said, pushing back on El-Sayed's comments about Trump.

"So you asked, now let me ask you. Would you invite President Donald Trump on the stage with you?" Cain said.

"I would love to be on the stage with Donald Trump. I would debate him tooth and nail," El-Sayed said, pushing back on Cain's comments.

"You're playing a slick word game!" Cain said, appearing frustrated by El-Sayed's response.
