Trump campaigns in Michigan a day after Obama rallies Democrats
Obama’s Detroit rally and Trump’s Port Huron stop sharpen the Senate fight, with Democrats needing a net gain of four seats to win control.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump rallies Republicans in Port Huron, Michigan, one day after President Barack Obama campaigned for Democrats in Detroit, underscoring the state's pivotal role in next week's midterm elections.
- Democrats need a net gain of four seats in both the United States Senate and House of Representatives to overturn Republicans' narrow 53-47 and 218-214 majorities, making Michigan's competitive contest decisive.
- Republican Representative Mike Rogers distances himself from Trump's US-Canada trade tariffs, which have impacted the Detroit-based auto industry and created friction in the competitive open-seat Senate race.
- During his Detroit rally Saturday, Obama criticized attacks on El-Sayed as attempts to question his patriotism, comparing the tactics to false claims that "he was born in Kenya."
- Trump and Rogers have alleged without evidence that El-Sayed has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, claims he calls "shameful" while defending his allegiance to America and his faith.
