You can try to pretend all you want but the conflict in Iran is not resolved and it’s a reminder of Trump pulling an 180 every time an American fills up their tank.
You can call it soft. You can call it ignorance. You can call it whatever. The point still remains that it is the single biggest thing that will impact this election cycle.
And it is not a positive impact whatsoever on republicans.

Maybe Georgia but rural voters are the ones who have been voting at a high rate. Look at the primaries. You don’t primary RINOs to then stay home. In primaries urban and youth vote was down

IF (and I'm not sold yet, still) there is a bloodbath, instead of MAGA using it as a wakeup call, they will cope-pivot to their bread and butter: voter fraud

I think most people understand those people are voting.
But rabid partisans who vote in primaries are almost always a small % of the total party electorate.

Probably not but the relevant part is what will those elected Dems do once in office, lean toward the DSA platform, embrace it? Some will, they’ve said it.

I will absolutely buy this.
In the event of a blood bath it’s because Trump and the GOP lost the urban/suburban males he made gains with in 2024

Coming from Towery, that is worrisome news. Hopefully, it's a miscall.

Georgia just can't get right. Ridiculous

We voted Sunday afternoon in northeast Gwinnett (Atlanta suburbs).
Our HOA technically bans political yard signs, but the few I have seen around the neighborhood are for the Republican Lt. Governor candidate. He seems to have a better ground game than either Collins or Jackson.
We are in what I've considered a pretty safely red pocket in a blue county, but I definitely felt like the minority Sunday.
I think the thing that scares me is that stats seem to show that in Georgia the middle of the road Republicans turn out early while the hard core/MAGA types turn out day of. If those rural middle of the road voters don't turn out the state is toast. I can't imagine a fully blue state executive branch.

Collins will get beat by at least 10 points. He's the worst candidate we have had on the GOP side in a long time. Jackson won't even campaign with him.

but the DEMs have fricked it so bad the past 2 years
I hate having to pin my election hopes on the dems being viewed as really screwed up (even worse than the Rs right now) and that is what drives their voting decisions. It doesn't speak well to the message the Republican Party is relying on and their track record over the last two years. Yeah, it might work out but there is an unease for me right now.
In normal times I wouldn't have such unease about the above. But I don't think these are normal times as the polarization is becoming ever more extreme and sadly, violent. What is rapidly becoming an open embrace of the DSA types by the democrat party is what I've been warning about for years. California progressivism has gone national and taken the next step in its radicalization. Newsom did talk about how the DSA is the future. He's one of their frontrunners in '28. Who on the Left that is in a position of leadership and willing to fight to moderate that party? As a native and lifelong Californian this embrace of the DSA scares the hell out of me having lived through how things have changed on a statewide level out here.. even though I'm in a good area.

It’s also midterms. Trump singlehandly draws voters to the polls. He’s not on the ballot. Some people also don’t care about local and state elections but will overwhelmingly vote in presidential.

The actual DSA stuff is still on the fringes.
But the only reason the GOP has a chance is the main DEM party not distancing itself from the DSA. If this is a blue trickle, similar to the red trickle of 2022, then perhaps they'll figure this out.
I figured they'd have figured it out after 2024, hence, they've fricked it so bad the past 2 years.
Society as a whole doesn't want the extreme insanity. The middle is just going to go back and forth trying to avoid what it feels is the more extreme side. Clearly, Trump/MAGA is seen this way but the DEMs not distancing themself from the DSA doesn't make them very appealing, either.
