Republicans caused the 15% shift by poorly communicating the last 2 years successes

A lot of good stories about border control, USAID theft, Child care/ other social theft, inflation less than previous 4 years, less gas cost than previous, shutdown of fentanyl drugs across the border, freedom in Venisuala , set back of Iranian nuclear bombs, shut down of Hamas, Hezbollah. Lots of good things to talk about
instead to much talk about voting irregularity, late term abortion, and ? that does not wind folks up.
Thune and Cornyn got passes for doing nothing
RNC messaging and candidate messaging just was over all not interesting enough to motivate.

I have it on good authority that Trump lied about every issue he campaigned on and hes the worst president evaarrr by people who apparently dont remember the previous administration. So you must be lying since gas is $4 and that is more important than literally any other issue, even if you arent.

29% of Americans used buy-now-pay-later for groceries. That number is double what it was two years ago.
So while yes, there were a lot of successes that went unnoticed, gaslighting people on cost of living issues while devoting time and energy to a ballroom and Golden Arches did not play well to an electorate already increasingly poor and angry. And every time people go to the gas station and pay $60 to fill up their Accord or Camry, it’s another reminder of this war.

No one is saying there weren't some successes but
quote:Is a joke. The bulk of their claimed total is self-deportations, a bullshite number that is impossible to prove.
border control
quote:Will come right back under dems.
USAID
quote:Still high. The average person just sees continued high costs and doesn't care that it's 1% less than under Biden.
inflation less than previous 4 years
quote:See above, and Trump himself said the higher gas prices were because of the Israel war, which he said was worth it. Not brilliant.
less gas cost than previous
quote:He took out the leader who was blocking super donor Paul Singer's purchase of Citgo. The same leftist government is in charge of Venezuela, minus Maduro.
freedom in Venisuala
quote:Are you serious?
set back of Iranian nuclear bombs
quote:Cornyn was primaried in favor of a guy who got skullfricked by a trans kid-loving communist homo.

You can’t put lipstick on a pig. People smelled bullshite during Biden, they smell it now. Republicans need to do better governing.

While they could have done a better job of messaging, the real issues were Iran and congress leaving Trump out to dry on legislation and judges.
Trump should have handled Iran the same way he did Venezuela. A few precision hits, in and out, take out the leader, move on. Never should have allowed it to bog down.
Congress was completely fricking useless. They should have passed the Save Act and they also should have codified most of Trumps EOs. Instead, they proved they were completely fricking useless and gave people zero reason to vote for them other than "we're not as bad as the Dems". It wasn't enough to overcome the contempt so may have for them, Trump, or both.

The war.
Posted on 11/8/26 at 4:54 pm to Trevaylin
It’s simple, majority of voters can’t stand Trump and hate MAGA (the bigger problem).

The shift came from illegal aliens voting....

The war. The economy. MAGA dumbassery. Immigration policy execution.
I had a long post while I was banned centering on the 4 Is
Iran
Inflation (which was a way to force in the economy and affordability together)
ICE
israel
The economy is almost always 1 or 2 and it was 1 bigly this time, but lots of smaller factors played into that (including Iran)

So what your saying is the voters bear no responsibility for their stupidity and shortsightedness? Nah, you can blame Trump for the next decade but that doesn’t excuse the stupidity of the average American voter, you included

I don't think they could do that in Iran, take out 1 arsehole leader and another takes his place, maybe worse, the next day.
Should have just nuked the mountains where the nuke dust was and any other important military installations to the point they were all uninhabitable in any way shape, or form and got the heck out of there. It was like attacking Afghanistan, almost impossible to change that regime without boots on the ground in a country of 93 million people and no telling how many millions support that regime. Would have been a lot of dead and injured American soldiers fighting door to door and through the mountains...A bad idea from the get go..The only way to take them out is help the Iranians take them down their ownselves from within...

I 100% agree and think they should keep doing what they are doing and it will for sure not lead to another wipeout in 2028. No notes from me.

Specifically need more Ballroom content and pressers with pictures outside the Lincoln Memorial

You're not wrong about the average voter, though. As I've said a million times, over 40% are not party affiliated and they're fickle as hell. It really does make you lose faith in humanity, but it's not a betrayal of anything. They jumped on Trump's bandwagon last time and bailed on him this time.
But it starts at the top. Bottom line, Trump failed to deliver. I mean, simply not going to Iran would have made this a lot less destructive. It's not the only problem but that alone would have made things so much better.

Weird, I knew exactly what their success was and voted for them. Their communication was fine. The MSM is the problem.

You're correct about the Rs failing to adequately get the proper message out for the midterms but the Iran shite Show along with the DSA media harping on gas prices/affordability pretty much overshadowed all Republican messaging.
