GOP in ‘Triage’ Mode

from The Weekend Hosted by Jonathan Capehart, Jackie Alemany, Eugene Daniels, Maya Eaglin, Moses Small, Elena Schneider, Jessica Taylor, Josh Einiger

October 10, 2026; 7am: President Trump continues to rally for Republicans with just 24 days left until the midterms. But a new poll by Pew Research Center finds that just 30% of Americans approve of the job Trump is doing as president, which is among the lowest ratings of his second term so far. Plus, new reporting from Politico states that “Republican campaign groups are shifting money away from races they no longer believe to be winnable.” Elena Schneider, national political reporter for The Washington Sun, and Jessica Taylor, Senate and Governors Editor for The Cook Political Report, join “The Weekend” to discuss.
