INTRO: President Trump is rallying in Michigan Sunday in support of Michigan Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers … who’s facing off against Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed (awb-DOOL’ el-SIGH’-yedd). Rogers repeats his claims that his opponent has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood on N-B-C’s “Meet the Press.”
ACK: Michigan Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers
*** MANDATORY CREDIT: NBC’s “Meet the Press” ***
TAG: El-Sayed has disavowed the Muslim Brotherhood and has denied any connections to the group. He has accused Rogers of being beholden to corporate interests. The race could determine which party controls the Senate after the midterm elections.
