Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers believes that Democrats should be nervous about losing Michigan as many Reagan Democrats have become Trump supporters.

He predicted that Trump could win Michigan due to the support from working-class voters.

“You know, places that are really important, you know, those kinds of Reagan Democrats that now have become, you know, Trump Democrats. That tells you that the Democrats should be nervous about what’s going on here in the state of Michigan. And clearly, the Democrats have been the party of the elite. You know, they don’t buy their own groceries. They don’t pump their own gas. That’s why they’re running around the country saying, ‘Everything is better,’” Rogers said.

Rogers also mentioned the uncommitted voters and the dissatisfaction within the Muslim community towards Biden’s stance on the Israel-Hamas conflict.

“Well, not if you work for a living, and here in Michigan, we work for a living. So that sends a very clear message, I think, and why I think that puts the president in a great place to actually win the state of Michigan. We win the state of Michigan, we will win,” Rogers predicted. “Donald Trump will be the next president, and Mike Rogers is going to be the next United States senator here,” he said.

“That’s why I think the Democrats are nervous and have been run around the state saying they’re going to put $100 to $150 million here to try to stop us, and we’re not gonna let them do it,” he said.

He highlighted a “black male problem” for Democrats in Michigan, citing reasons why some are moving away from the party.

Rogers suggested that Democrats are facing internal divisions and may struggle to mobilize voters on election day.

“They are drifting away from the Democrats. They are realizing their life was better under a Donald Trump presidency. Their 401k was bigger. Their employment opportunities were better. Their groceries didn’t cost $950 more per month. Matter of fact, I always say that the most expensive vehicle to operate here in the state of Michigan in 2024 is your shopping cart — thank you to Joe Biden and the Democrats,” he said.

“That uncommitted vote says that we have an intensity advantage going in … where the Democrats are really divided,” Rogers said.
