Democratic voters in every state have shown three traits since Trump returned to office. Democratic voters are angry. Democratic voters want change. Democrats want to win.

Because Rogers only lost the 2024 Michigan Senate election by 21,000 votes, there has been an assumption of candidate strength in his 2026 candidacy, but 2026 isn’t 2024, and when Mike Rogers was asked about Donald Trump, a new question came to mind.
Could Mike Rogers be the most unelectable US Senate candidate in Michigan?
