"Nobody in the GOP is "excited about going door to door and doing voter engagement," Bannon argued, adding that "the old way of putting a couple hundred million dollars in and buying TV ads on Fox and CNN doesn't work anymore."

"That's old school. Does not work. There's been a new day, and the Senate's got to understand that, or we're going to lose the Senate," added Bannon, who has repeatedly called for Trump to serve an unconstitutional third term.

In a later segment, Bannon again criticized poor voter outreach of Republicans, who could face a tough time at the ballot box amid backlash to the Trump administration, and warned:

"You're going to lose the Senate. And right now, it looks like you want to lose the Senate."

He's whining about Sen Republicans opposing DJT on the ballroom and a couple of other margin issues... as if only DJT would just conjure his Inner Hitler more, everything would be OK.

(there's a link at the article to his podcast, but I'm not going to link it here... it's bloody awful)

imo, it is way too soon to tell.

The results of the 2026 election will depend upon one thing, and one thing only ...

Voter turnout.

Will Democrats be able to convince voters that their votes matter in the district where Republican attempts have been to effectively cancel those votes?


Blue wave vs. Red Seawall.


I'd proffer, that is an appropriate distillation.

Gerrymandering does not matter in the Senate.

If both the House and Senate flip next November, we have to get rid of Trump by the next February for the good of the nation and the world.

No one will miss him. You might have people who lie about missing him, but no one will miss him.

Why can't they figure out that Nazis were never Socialists?

"First they (the Nazis) came for the Socialists..."

Because the conservative world view is rooted in fear.

Why are they fearful? Because they are -------- who treat other people like ----.

Because they worry someday they might get treated the same way they treat women, minorities, immigrants, -------, -------, slopes, Hajis, and children who were raped by Trump.
