About this episode
Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Are Democrats having their own Maga moment?
Abdul El-Sayed’s narrow Michigan Democratic Senate primary victory may reveal something larger than an ideological shift. Michael examines how anger at party leadership, frustration with the establishment and distrust of traditional ideas about electability are fueling a Democratic insurgency. Drawing comparisons to Donald Trump’s takeover of the Republican Party, he explores El-Sayed’s support among college towns, affluent counties and Arab communities—as well as Haley Stevens’ strength with older Black voters. Is this simply a progressive breakthrough, or the beginning of a MAGA-style revolt on the left? Listen. Vote. Rate. Review. Share. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
