Former Trump campaign chairman and White House chief strategist Steve Bannon told his podcast viewers that Republicans should take Tuesday night’s losses to heart, saying: “The midterms start tonight, and the warning signs are flashing.” He observed that “Democrats just flipped two Georgia commissioners,” marking “their first statewide wins in 30 years.”

Far-right influencer Mike Cernovich (who spawned the “Pizzagate” conspiracy theory) tweeted: “Ted Cruz and Mark Levin are walking Trump into impeachments and then prison. 2026 will be a blood bath.” MAGA podcaster Jack Posobiec likewise warned that “2026 will be worse if we don’t course-correct.”

    No, I understand the rationale. It’s just shit, infantile logic. I guarantee you I do more for getting leftists in than the moral high grounders did on average plus a SD or two. It’s just easier to say inaction isn’t an action and act like you’re not indirectly responsible for the shit you preached against and more.

      That comment clearly demonstrates the problem. That is the attitude of the DNC and the Democratic leadership. Dismiss the electorate as too stupid to live, then wonder why we don’t support your terrible candidates.
