There is no doubt that there is a swath of the American public that is a typically younger piece of the puzzle that is very skeptical of the American projection of power abroad. Younger Republicans tend to look more askance at it. They don't remember the Cold War. They don't think as highly of what America could do abroad.
"It'll guarantee the midterms," he told Republicans gathered in the ballroom of his golf course just outside Miami on Monday. "If you don't get it, big trouble." Trump insisted that building on strict national voter identification laws, banning mail ballots, and restricting transgender rights would secure Republican electoral success.
I predict that Representative Thomas Massie will go down as the WORST Republican Congressman in the long and fabled history of the United States Congress, even worse than Crazy Liz Chaney, Cryin' Adam Kinzinger, and Marjorie Traitor Brown (Remember, Green turns to Brown under stress!). They are all misfits and losers, but Massie, who is running against a great American Patriot in the Kentucky Primary, will hopefully lose BIG.
I have been harping on the idea that voters who do not want to choose between "a lesser of two evils" in November need to show up to vote in the primaries process. I hope to see record engagement all throughout the spring and summer, building toward the November midterm elections.
Indeed, regional "divisions" - others might say "alarm" or "outrage" - had intensified during the fall of 2025 following the US's massive military build-up in the Caribbean, its air strikes against alleged drug boats - resulting in scores of extrajudicial killings - and the threats of a US attack on Venezuela.
I want to make Texas the WORST place for terrorist muslims, groomers, PDFs [pedophiles], & corrupt politicians to live in so help me God. Let's keep Texas Christian. Charlie Kirk would have voted for me.
In Texas, where the Party hasn't managed to elect a Democrat as governor or to the Senate in more than thirty years, it nominated its arguably stronger candidate for the general election, and slightly more people voted in the Democratic primary than in the Republican one. I'd call that a good night.
The Cornyn/NRSC JFC is airing a new ad accusing Ken Paxton of "sleeping around with a married mother of seven" and calling him a "wife-cheater and fraud." Has there been another instance of a committee going so hard against a candidate who it may have to support in a few months?
the rotting carcass of the MAGA era, its shrieking insecurities, its pathetic resentments, its festering hatreds, and that distinct, metallic tang of panic rising in the back of its throat behind the soft wattle.
Even after the especially chaotic events of the past few weeks, Trump supporters are sticking by their man. Second, faith in Trump's leadership is not driven by his adherence to a coherent political ideology. Trump, who, as part of his "America First" policy, once declared that he would be "getting out of the nation-building business," has now declared that the U.S. "will run the country" of Venezuela for the foreseeable future.
Earlier this week, Gary Kendrick, a GOP council member in the red town of El Cajon, on San Diego's eastern outskirts, announced that he was crossing the aisle and joining the Democrats. Kendrick was the longest-serving Republican official in the region's local government. "I've been a Republican for 50 years," he said, in the statement explaining his action. "I just can't stand what the Republican Party has become. I'm formally renouncing the Republican Party."
