This election was a political revolution repudiating Trump & Trumpism—and a cultural-social revolution against the MAGA worldview that only white Christian conservatives are the true Americans. @garrison_hayes and I explore this & more in the new episode of our STRESS TEST podcast. youtube.com/watch?v=3ZzDbFUE…

You were saying....
Most Accurate Pollster in America, who correctly predicted every Trump’s victory, just gave a STUNNING Midterms prediction that will give Democrats Nightmares. John McLaughlin says Republicans WILL hold the Senate with 53 seats and come closer than expected in the House and there will be some MAJOR GOP surprise victories. McLaughlin says there is a massive upset brewing in Minnesota with Michelle Tafoya beating out Peggy Flanagan for Senate. A GOP pickup. He also says the Republican in the New York Governor's race, Bruce Blakeman, is in striking distance of Kathy Hochul. "There are more Trump voters than Democrats. If Republicans show up, we will WIN." The polls said Hillary Clinton would win in 2016. They underestimated Trump again in 2024. This is exactly what they're trying to do again. Republicans need to get out and Vote and if they do, we will win. Well said, @jmclghln.

RED WAVE incoming! In Dallas, Tarrant, and Collin Counties, wait times at red precincts are significantly higher than at blue precincts. Definitely feels like the Democrats burned through their high-propensity voters on the first two days of early voting. Called it.

Is this performance art?
Ben Shapiro, owner of Daily Wire and someone who supposedly makes MILLIONS providing "expert" political analysis gave his prediction for how the midterms were gonna go before votes were cast. Witness greatness and expertise in action. Jim Cramer couldn't have been more proud.

Watters is actually arguing that a lot of Trump voters wanted a dictator and became demoralized when he wasn't a dictator. Thus, they didn't vote....But Republicans did vote. They just voted for Democrats.
Watters: A lot of people voted for a dictator. Lock up crooked, deport the whole country. But that didn't happen. That’s why the base didn’t show up.

Hey, remember when Donald Trump said the Democrats could only win by cheating? Now he’s accepting the results. So what was he talking about?

Let's call this the Trump hangover election. It’s as if American voters, after a long night out, woke up and regretted the choices they made the previous evening. And they said no to all the BS, chaos, hate, cruelty, war, lies, and economic folly of Trump 2.0. Read my take on this historic wipe-out. motherjones.com/politics/202…

This was the Trump hangover election. A historic rout of the GOP, as voters across America looked at what’s happened since Trump returned to the White House and asked, “What were we thinking?” @garrison_hayes and I break down this total repudiation of Trumpism. youtu.be/xPkbhopDzqc

Cultists gonna cult.
Leavitt: "Unfortunately, I think the American people forgot about the good policy, maybe listened to the lying media on the other side." Tarlov: "They know how much money they have." Leavitt: "They don't. They got more money in their pockets because of the president's tax cuts."

We couldn't add the Benny Hill theme to this. But you can hear it.
In the final days before the election... *this* is what the Republican campaign trail looks like. Reporter Noah Lanard recounts his experience at an upstate New York rally for Republican Congressional candidate Anthony Constantino on this episode of Stress Test. Watch the full episode at the link in our bio.

Time to talk about Hunter Biden?
Mike Johnson: “If we lose the midterms, the Democrats will go after the president’s family, the cabinet, his donors, friends, and the rest of you who have committed crimes.” Sir, your terms are acceptable.

What hysterical bullshit. Why do people believe this crap?
I am not here to tell you that Republicans have done a wonderful job. I am here to tell you that the Democrat Party has been fully captured by communists who want you dead and seek to destroy western civilization itself. Go vote against them. It’s the only choice.

This is not true.
Chaffetz: Trump voters, the Maga Republicans, they are going to vote because they are patriotic. They think it's a duty. On the Democratic side, they have to try to convince them to come out.
