Middle America wants stability. It wants less extremism and more mainstream. It wants lower taxes, lower inflation , solid growth in its 401k, growth in American jobs with America companies. It wants limited involvement in overseas conflicts unless it absolutely involves our security. It wants to be able to go to the grocery store, out to eat , or shopping without fear of theft or violence in its own cities. Winning an election is literally this simple.

SMH I hope you are right but too many keyboard warriors that cloud the narrative.

Hence why control over the media is extremely valuable. It allows the left to act bat shite crazy, yet maintain support. Free from accountability.

As someone who has warned this board for years there are elements of the left that want you dead, the past few weeks have opened a lot of normie eyes.

I want these demons to keep revealing themselves

Maybe, but they are inconsistent and are prone to not vote in off year elections. They assume that because Trump won in 2024, that fixed everything and there’s no need to vote in 2026. They need to stay engaged and realize they have to keep the GOP in power longer than 2 years.

You are spot on relative off year elections. Middle America forgets about those elections. Extremists vote, especially when they lost the White House. It’s cyclical regardless of party.

If only.... the mechanism to steal elections for the left is still in place and there is still no recourse when they do. You can see Tina Peters for exhibit A.

They're actively working to steal the next election and every senate and house seat they can while Bodi/Kash have done nothing to stop it from happening again.

This. We need to take media AND college campuses (which Charlie was in the road to doing). Take those and we are set. Won’t be quick or easy, but we have to

Populism wins elections right now. That’s why Trump won, that’s why Bernie was popular, that’s why Mamdani is winning in NYC. People from the left and right are fed up with the status quo and will explore literally anything that sounds like a shakeup. The middle class is just about gone; that’s not Trump’s fault, it’s just the natural result of decades of monetary inflation. If the left can channel its anger into its own kind of economic populism, it will resonate with people. I don’t think they can though. They’re still enraptured in all sorts of weird identity politics wokeness.

I grew up in a balanced, swing voter household. This is a post that I feel mostly aligns with my family values growing up in suburban Washington. Over the years, I have swung further to the right, whereas my sister moved further to the left. You are entirely correct.

People sense a need for some form of extremism, only to be frustrated by the long arduous protracted process of politics.

We need change badly

I disagree. The change from work hard and love God, family and country has been replaced by fractured homes and liberal Marxist atheist idealogology.

We are a weak, and its intentional. Glad folks are waking up.

It’s something watching how clueless you people are to what you’re doing.

I have always encouraged my children to seek the truth for themselves. Research and find out for yourself. Use other search engines other than "google"

Vet everything you see or read regardless of the source. Its eye opening.

Not true, the middle class cares deeply about their children being taught the rights of trans people.
