With the midterms approaching, Mike asks whether voters are paying attention to the crime, corruption allegations and controversial candidates shaping some of the country’s biggest races. From questions surrounding Ilhan Omar’s citizenship and finances to the growing backlash over sanctuary city policies after a brutal attack on an NYPD detective, Mike argues that the stakes go far beyond party politics. He also takes aim at Democrats he believes are out of step with mainstream Americans, while President Trump hits the campaign trail in a final push to turn out MAGA voters. With predictions of a Democratic wave already making headlines, Mike asks whether Republicans can overcome the pessimism, expose their opponents’ weaknesses and deliver when it matters most.
