Trump Puts the Mid in Midterms

Trump campaigns in South Carolina as the polls show Democrat Annie Andrews tied with Senator Darline Graham. Jon and Dan react to the president's incoherent case for the nepo senator, and the White House's "grim" mood heading into the midterms, before discussing the latest batch of Senate polls, Trump's decision to cancel his upcoming rally in Kansas, and Barack Obama's response to the administration's freakout over his Cheesecake Factory joke.

Then, the guys discuss the situation with the Peltola campaign’s “ballot-stacking” in Alaska and whether the right might use it justify meddling in the election, before answering listener questions about how we should be feeling about Tuesday.
