So what the fuck happened today, I'm not digging through pages of blackpill here or on telegram about how this is the end and trump will resign and kill himself tomorrow, so I'm asking here:
  1. What the fuck happened in Virginia for a outsider? Was it because they ran a retarded black woman vs CIA glowie?
  2. New York, did sliwa condemn the city for a pajeet ruled escape from new York?
  3. How does Trump and his allies plan to react to all this?
Thanks in advance.
Virginia has voted blue since 2008, which is approaching two decades.

Sliwa did not condemn anything. Cuomo joined the primary late, didn't treat Mamdani as a threat, and did too little too late. T

NYC will not substantially change because none of Mamdani's policies can be implemented without State-Wide Changes. That said, he will decrease police funding and do other things that will cause surrounding states like New Jersey to go redder over time.

Trump and his allies aren't reacting to this in the same way they didn't react to Marjorie Taylor Green going anti-MAGA when Trump refused to endorse her for Senate or Governor. Reacting accomplishes no goal. All Trump's tweeted really is that the GOP does a worse job when he isn't on the ticket. So, ego stuff. Milquetoast.

The only thing of any consequence is the House of Representatives. Thomas Massie is going to be primaried out. Marjorie Taylor Green will likely be primaried out but no confirmation there until March 2026.

Beyond that, if the GOP can hold the house in Nov 2026, smooth sailing ahead. If not, Trump gets stonewalled or investigated and we all kill time until 2028. Sit back and relax. Even in that situation, Trump can veto anything he doesn't like.
 
The young was right wing too, this has nothing to do woth boomers/zoomers. It was men/women demographics where men of all age ranges were red leaning and women of all age ranges were blue leaning
You know what? You're absolutely right. We desperately need to repeal the 19th.

1. Virginia is largely beholden to Northern VA, which is where all of the Beltway Insiders live. The state is slowly moving to the right, but NoVa still full of disgruntled Obama-Biden era liberals, and the Republican party in Virginia is run by people who think it's still 2005. The Democrats are going to try their damnedest to pretend that they aren't worried about Virginia, but rest assured that they are very worried about it. Pay close attention to it 2028-onwards, when the government employees that Trump fired have all moved out.
2. New York is a lost cause that already hit rock bottom, so this is just a step sideways for them.
3. Not by panicking, because this doesn't warrant it.
 
Woah, hold up

NJ was never a battleground state, its been solidly D for a while, the fuck are you smoking?

My takeaway from tonight is that none of this is really representative of anything other than that D states are going to continue to D. If, for example, NJ flipped red, that would have been fucking insane. The opposite was basically expected. My prior post aged like milk unfortunately but I didn't think NJ's republicans left in that large numbers, it wasn't even close.
Nah, it's places like PA I mean. NJ has always been a lost cause since forever. It's not like a Florida flips blue situation that some GOP "analysts" are making tonight out to be, but it should definitely be a wake up call. VA GOP lost way too much tonight in places they should have held for example. As for the Garden State, unfortunately south NJ has always been red but the NYC trash always means the north decides the state.
 
Democrats literally almost overturned the filibuster during joe bidens presidency, they were off by two votes. You really think they arent going to be the party that does it first? When they are historically been the party that has done it first for a whole slew of other issues.
You're right but again it's absolutely pointless.

You won't pass anything worthwhile by nuking the filibuster so long as the majority is just in name only. All the Rs doing it will do is take the heat for no gain.
 
As much as I like Blumpf the mid terms were always going to be a complete slaughter.

The economy is like 2008 tier bad if not worse since there weren't fuck tons of jeet scabs taking every white collar jobs in 2008, nor was inflation 10,000%

The opposition party always wins big when the economy is shitty and it is incredibly shitty rn.
 
I was watching some zoomer pollsters on youtube.

They said something alarming. The muslim talked about shit people cared about.

None of the republicans have a "message".

This is the alarming part, these were normie zoomers who don't like Fuentes. They admitted that if they have to break bread with groypers to win then they'll do it, because for better or worse, they do offer a message to young men.
 
Oy vey this is all Qatarlson fault.

And there it is: the thinking of neo-cons who think that their outdated, nationally loathed thinking is how the GOP should operate. I think Tucker is a retard who says dumb shit, but removing him and anyone who follows him only hurts the GOP more than the purity they so desperately want.
 
Crossposting my thoughts from the Jay Jones victory thread:

It really is baffling how the state GOP's in so many probable battleground states are so miserably incompetent at any basic politicking. VA GOP, one of the most useless in the nation, just got wiped. NJ GOP failed. PA GOP, despite holding much of the House and Senate in the state, failed to remove the judicial tumors in their supreme court. Can you blame this on Trump? Possibly. Were the Dems holding out on the shutdown specifically to gain ire and affect the election? I can believe that.

But what this is definitely in my view, is an indictment of the GOP as a whole. They had the country on a platter, a DNC that was divided and nationally hated, everything going for them, and they still fucked it up abysmally. Worst part is that they won't learn from this, they'll blame Trump, or MAGA, blame literally any factor except the fact that the old guard of the Republican party is as useless as the DNC's old guard. Problem of course is the DNC's new club is full of psychotic but politically savvy socialists, the GOP is saddled with retards in suits trying to emulate their paymasters and keep losing with dignity. The only, and I mean ONLY silver lining is that maybe Trump can figure out that something is definitely wrong and right the ship, because it was better to lose these elections first before the actually important midterms.

Probably won't, but let a boy dream, eh?
So much writing, so little acknowledging the lack of affordability.

Not surprised a Uniparty R lost here.
