45 Days Until The Midterms

from The Weekend Hosted by Eugene Daniels, Elise Jordan, Jonathan Capehart, Mike Allen, Dana Milbank, Jeff Mason, Fmr. Rep. Susan Wild

September 19, 2026; 7am: As early in-person voting for the November midterms gets underway, there are new signs that President Trump and his economy are dragging down his party's chances of keeping the majority in both chambers of Congress. Two new polls from The New York Times and Fox News show that voters trust Democrats more than Republicans on the economy. And this week, MS NOW added Kansas and South Carolina, two states that previously looked safely Republican, to its list of Senate races to watch. Mike Allen, co-founder of Axios, and Dana Milbank, columnist for The Washington Sun, join “The Weekend” to discuss.
