Testing the Trump Factor
It’s not a small task unseating an incumbent from Congress in a midterm election. But there’s a special class of Republicans in the crosshairs this primary season: people who voted to impeach Donald Trump after January 6th. Michigan’s Peter Meijer, who represents the state's 3rd District, is in that club. Today, we talk to a political reporter about Meijer's chances--and about the Trump-endorsed newcomer who is challenging him. GUEST: Ben Orner, MLive political reporter.
