Rep.Haley Stevens, D-Mich., said Wednesday that far-left streamer Hasan Piker "should be condemned," publicly breaking with a prominent campaign ally of Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed as Democrats try to unite after a bruising Michigan primary and hold an open battleground Senate seat in November.Stevens, who lost the Democratic Senate primary to El-Sayed last week, reiterated her criticism of Piker on NewsNation's "Vargas Reports" when host Elizabeth Vargas asked about the streamer’s involvement in the race."I believe he should be condemned.
I do.I said that, that's what I was just saying to you," Stevens said.
"I was saying, On election day, I said that, and if asked again, and you're asking me, I do think he should be condemned.I don't know what the guy has to do with Michigan."DAVID MARCUS: WHY IT'S TOO LATE FOR DEMS TO DITCH PIKER AND HIS AMERICA-HATING SOCIALISMRep.

"Democrats would do right to disavow him, but they'll continue to bend to his will like spineless, useful idiots."Stevens also rejected the idea that Piker represented the Democratic Party and questioned his place in its politics."I don't agree with Piker.I don't think he's a part of the Democratic Party, she said.
