## Resource

The Friday crew looks at Trump's approval ratings sinking to new historic lows and a new poll showing 1/3 of Democratic voters identify positively with DSA. Then we're joined by Michigan Chronicle reporter Sam Robinson to talk about what he's seeing on the ground in the primary between Haley Stevens and Abdul El Sayed. Finally, we look at the allegations that Rep. Max Miller assaulted his wife and toddler while the GOP continues backing his race.
