Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed on Tuesday appealed to Donald Trump with an offer tailor-made for one of the president’s well-known weak spots as he pitched a Medicare-for-all program.

“Donald, if you’re watching, we can put your name on it,” El-Sayed said on CNN. “I know you like to put your name on stuff. You can finally meet the unmet promise in America to guarantee everybody healthcare. So, it’s on the table if you want to do it.”

CNN’s Kaitlan Collins asked El-Sayed if he was being serious.

“I’m absolutely serious,” he said. “I don’t care what it’s called. I want people to have healthcare in this country.”

El-Sayed, who made a similar offer last week during an interview with Zeteo’s Mehdi Hasan, said he wants Americans to have cradle-to-grave coverage with no copays, premiums or deductibles and no risk of medical debt.

“I think that would be a win,” he said. “So if he wants to call it Trumpcare, I’m game.”
