Show Notes

Mark Halperin’s reported monologue goes inside four battleground Senate races Republicans may actually win – three flips and one key hold. Mark explains why Republicans have a chance to take all four… and what that means for the prospect of a blue wave nationally.

The Daily Wire’s Mary Margaret Olahan explains how liberal media bias is a big factor inside the White House… and how the Trump Administration feels about Republicans’ chances in the midterms.

New York Congressman Mike Lawler (R) joins to discuss his re-election campaign, one of the hottest House races in the country, just a day after his closely watched debate. He explains the formula he has used to defy the odds, while being targeted by Democrats to hold onto a district won by Kamala Harris two years ago.
