With the midterm elections just days away, Abdul El-Sayed continues to face attacks from Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans.

Don is joined by political commentator Wajahat Ali to unpack the attacks on El-Sayed, the rhetoric coming from Trump and his allies, and what the controversy reveals about the increasingly heated battle for Michigan.

Republicans have spent more than $280 MILLION on anti-transgender attack ads ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. But is their strategy actually working?
Don sits down with Kelley Robinson, president of the Human Rights Campaign, to discuss the GOP's relentless focus on transgender rights, new polling suggesting these issues rank near the bottom of voters' priorities, and whether the attacks could backfire on Election Day.
And it's not just Republicans. Some Democrats are adopting similar positions, raising serious questions about the party's commitment to protecting LGBTQ+ Americans.
With Election Day just days away, Robinson weighs in on Trump's campaign rhetoric, divisions within the Democratic Party, and the growing political influence of LGBTQ+ voters.

With Republicans bracing for potentially devastating losses, Trump is facing mounting political pressure, renewed questions about his health and growing scrutiny over his decision to scale back in-person campaign appearances. And when a reporter dared to ask whether he was growing tired of traveling, the president erupted in a furious personal attack.
As Democrats look to make gains in traditionally Republican strongholds and Trump's approval ratings remain underwater, could November 3 deliver a political nightmare for the president?
Don unpacks the latest developments with election forecasting expert and American University historian Allan Lichtman, who shares his predictions for the midterms.
He's also joined by historian and political commentator Ruth Ben-Ghiat and Danielle Belton, former editor-in-chief of The Root and HuffPost, to examine Trump's increasingly combative rhetoric, the political mood across America and what's at stake as voters prepare to head to the polls.

Donald Trump's approval numbers are raising serious questions just days before the midterm elections and the president is lashing out at the polls.
Latest polling from Civiqs shows Trump struggling with young voters, women, and independents, while prediction market data from Kalshi puts his approval rating below 40%.
But Trump insists the polls are fake. At a rally in South Carolina, he attacked unfavorable surveys and questioned their credibility.
Don breaks down the numbers, Trump's reaction, and what it could all mean as Americans prepare to head to the polls on November 3.
