Trump attacks Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan campaign stop
Candidates are in their last full week of campaigning before the midterm elections, and early voting is already underway in 43 states. The latest CBS News poll shows that most Americans do not approve of President Trump's handling of the economy or inflation.

What the coverage shows
NBC News and the New York Times both focus on Trump’s anti-Muslim remarks at a Michigan rally, and both tie the coverage to a tight Senate race involving Abdul El-Sayed and Republican Mike Rogers. The New York Times uniquely frames the remarks as an “Islamophobic Rant” and quotes Trump invoking “hordes of jihadis,” while NBC says only that he attacked El-Sayed. Fox News diverges sharply, instead leading with Nicki Minaj’s support for Trump and presenting the rally as a campaign event for Mike Rogers and John James.
