--- Quote from: John Corbett on June 12, 2026, 07:12:57 PM ---The best thing the Republicans have going for them is that they are not Democrats. The electorate is pissed at the GOP largely due to the recent spike in inflation, mainly driven by high gas prices. That doesn't mean they have fallen in love with the Democrats. They haven't forgotten how bad things were under Biden and the Democrat Congress. The approval rating for the Democrat Party is still significantly lower than Trump's. I think a lot of voters are going to sit this one out or vote third party. The one thing the Democrats probably have going for them is a more energized base. IOW, their voters are more pissed off than the GOP base. The PO factor drives turnout. I'm old enough to remember the 2022 midterms which were supposed to be a red wave and turned out to be a red trickle. I think the same thing could happen to the Democrats this time around. Only time will tell.

The Dems have one thing going for them. The impact of the decades long anti-Trump propaganda campaign. I would say 50-70% of the population has been influenced. Strangely, not the usual suspects on the left but many older, white, college educated types who have been convinced that Trump hating is a noble cause. They can go out for an hour on "No King's" day and then knock off for a swanky lunch before returning to their gated communities. They are not personally affected by the loony leftist policies they espouse. They can't articulate exactly why they are obsessed with and hate Trump. Rather, they can only repeat generalizations. It's virtue signaling to show how much they hate Trump. The younger anarchist types who protest ICE are all very unhappy and angry people. Some of them likely get paid or at least funded to attend these riots and cause chaos but they all seem unhappy with their lives and channel that self-loathing to these events that lend themselves to venting that anger.

Just take a good look at that crowd standing behind the Nazi Tattoo Jerk. Old White Women is what you see. Their husband's have croaked and they are now flotsam and jetsam. Strumming guitars and singing old folk songs. There's Not nearly enough of them to win an election at any state wide level to win with. Nazi Man is gonna lose and give the Dem's another huge black eye.

Seems like a reasonably good estimate. It even affects some GOP voters.

Part of the problem is the Democrat base but I put much of the blame on the Democrat leadership. A majority of them know the positions their party has adopted are insane but they are too cowardly to speak out against it for fear of being primaried. So to get along, they go along. There are crazies in both major parties as well as among independents and third party members but the Democrats have allowed them to take over the driver's seat.

It is exactly what cost the Dem's Musk, Rogan, and JFK Jr. This is what cost them the POTUS. The close Swing states swung TRUMP. And Musk was super important as he and his computer nerds made sure the POTUS Election did not mirror 2020 and the the recent Calif joke of an election. They are Not even shy about trying to hid it anymore. The Dem's will Rig every election possible. Even run a Nazi if they think the guy can win. There is no boundary they will not cross anymore. None!

There are crazies in both parties but on the left they are in charge. In the Republican party, they are in the margins. Trump says some crazy things but more often than not pursues policies grounded in common sense. The media fixates on the words and ignores the positive results. A conflict is being resolved today that they suggested would result in WWIII and genocide. Are they apologizing? Nope. The news is all about the UFC match and the Kennedy Center. Minoriites and younger people tend to vote for Dems for their own reasons but have been less influenced by the propaganda than the elderly, white academic types who have been completely brainwashed.
