Trump cautions voters that a Democratic win could usher in open borders

Donald Trump told reporters that voters should back Republican candidates, regardless of personal preferences, to prevent a Democratic takeover that he says would open the borders. He specifically alluded to the Michigan Senate race, describing the Democratic contender Abdul El-Sayed as a “communist” and warning that his election would undo the administration’s immigration achievements. The contest pits El-Sayed against former Rep. Mike Rogers for the seat vacated by retiring Democrat Gary Peters.

Trump framed the upcoming midterms as a pivotal moment for preserving “good things” and warned that a Democratic win would reverse his policies. His remarks aim to rally the Republican base ahead of the November elections.
