Republicans are on defense with 11 days until the midterms. MS NOW’s Ari Melber is joined by political strategist Chai Komanduri and MS NOW political analyst Juanita Tolliver. Trump’s Justice Department has filed a preemptive lawsuit against Alaska to block the results of the Senate race in the state if anyone other than incumbent Republican Dan Sullivan wins. Nicolle Wallace is joined by Eugene Daniels, Michael Waldman, and Michael Feinberg for analysis on Deadline: White House. Even though election attorney Marc Elias, founder of Democracy Docket, is confident that the lawsuit filed by Donald Trump’s Justice Department against the state of Alaska over anything other than a Republican Senate victory will fail on the legal merits, that doesn’t make the lawsuit any less alarming and important. Elias explains to Jen Psaki what Trump is really up to.
