Okay so these are like Trump +20 districts. Either were in for a tsunami or Pollsters all have to move to Northern Alaska and work on crab boats for the rest of their lives

A twist on an old Lauren Post:

“I’m falling for that correct take. That’s clearly someone with a fetish for getting things right. I am glad to participate in that kind of perversion”

And developed a brand that no political campaign could tarnish. It gave people a different baseline to judge him on that no MAGA copy will ever get. And the longer they try the more it will incinerate their party.

It’s what sort of tells you the polling is real. They were not having these meltdowns in 2018. They see that it’s spiraling and they’ve got 4 weeks to pull out all the stops. There will be a migrant caravan narrative in the next two weeks.

He’s absolutely the perfect hatchet man for the next admin imo. He can’t be AG but let him run buck wild as your OMB or Government reform czar.

2028 is going to be filled with a lot of folks opening themselves up to defamation suits with the conspiracy theories they throw around for folks like Ossoff and Shapiro. It’s going to be America’s most crank filled election in decades.

I don’t think he’ll quit out of principle, but I wouldn’t be shocked if he was so tired of this shit that he retires in January after the Pension vests.

Happy National Coming Out Day to all in the LGBTQ+ community. You are loved for who you are by many, no matter what the haters and bigots say. Also RIP to Berks County’s finest in Keith Haring.

The Top 50 is littered with folks who are bedfellows with David Sirota. He’s like the he alien symbiote for turning you into a frothing online left wing crank.

Brother it’s not 2008. The GOP has given up on it. The candidate is fighting for the other races. It’s all over but no one will say it yet.

Unless they completely rewrite themselves in the minority years to get back their old base or build a new one we could easily be entering another 1940-1980 scenario where they’re a minority party whose infrequent national winners have to moderate in order to succeed.

The history of the decay of the Republican Party will be written about how they were given a path to new life in the next Party System through Latinos and Gen Z and how the Trump II admin actively looked them in the eyes and told them to eat shit and die.

Coalitions constantly change but one of the greatest challenges for the GOP is by 2030 they will have spent 15 years telling College educated suburban voters to fuck themselfes all while the backbone of their coalition outside of the South will be rapidly decaying as the Youngest Boomer will be 65.

Every day he hates these are his loyal legion and not the folks who golf Augusta or attend the Met Gala. He’s an addict to the adoration but hates the hangover it takes to get that high

I think she’s correct on principle but wrong in her election, because it’s very obvious she knew the reason she won her primary was because it was expected she would drop out. If she said she was going to stay in she isn’t in.

The way to tell if you’ve met this kind of guy is to ask what is the first rule of firearms and if he doesn’t immediately tell you to treat every gun as if it’s loaded and that they’re dangerous tools then he’s the guy Sky is describing.

And he’s very clearly fallen off in the defector days. It’s frankly an 80s hair metal band touring today levels of mediocrity and regression.

Part of the issue regarding this is we have study after study showing that a nation sees its child population level off once they reach developed nation status. People don’t want to have 5 kids actually! They did it because of child mortality!

How is this opinion any different than Itamar Ben-Gvir's but from the opposing side? You just want an ethnic cleansing for your preferred team.

Mamdani is one of the most prominent Pro-Palestinian figures in America and doing this nonsense to him delegitimizes your movement in ways Netanyahu dreams of. And while I think these folks are a minority that they have such power on the American Left is to its detriment.

Roger Marshall is in a Senate seat that no one alive in America can say they remember a Democrat who won it. He doesn’t know how to run a competitive general election. None of them have had to. It’s why Collins can keep it close while he blows it. An ultra marathoner vs a couch potato in a 5K.

I think we’re returning somewhat to a normalcy in American Politics in that wave years can produce big results because otherwise safe seat politicians get caught out of shape to run a real campaign and flop down the stretch when they have to try.

Or something about the DNC being broke. "Dems surging in Polls tells Ken Martin to Onion News through a collect call" or something in that vein.

Ben Collins isn't a comedian and it's clear the folks he hired only know how to be funny when doing the same "lol libs" jokes they've done on their own podcasts and Twitter for a decade. It doesn't hit the same in Trump II sorry! There's a reason Heidecker's InfoWars shit hits and this doesn't.

Ray Baker @bigbabyray.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
Of all the things to bash Martin for "bungling messaging"?Dems are doing so well the GOP is triaging Georgia & NC while scrambling to save SC & Kansas; is why this "joke" falls flat. Make fun of their lack of money! Make an autopsy report joke! But the NuOnion makes jokes for three dozen podcasters

lol I do not think this. I also don’t think AES is that bad, and probably will be an alright Senator; but his choice of campaign friends and style has me worried for 2032.

If he somehow finishes even or ahead of Benson he’s their champion. Run him for President. If he underperforms or loses, its b/c Cuck Schumer and the gang poisoned him with consultants. Who caused him to stray from a true Leftist Populist vision & a true populist campaign still hasn’t been tried.

It’s also worth noting that people’s perception of the economy doesn’t usually change overnight. So even if we do see gas prices drop in the Midwest in the next week or so the cake is already baked on people thinking Trump fucked up the economy as far as the midterms are concerned.

A beautiful and poetic piece of Talarico winning that Senate seat is that it would be us finally taking back the seat occupied by LBJ.

Let’s be honest in that it’s really the equivalent to us seeing Steve Garvey be declared the Senator for California over Schiff. It would be catastrophic.

The original sin imo was the veneration of Jobs. He was allowed to become a Tesla like figure for tech and SV despite not really being developer. But a good pitchman and having an idea of what users would like. After his death we’ve been creating newer and lesser versions of him.

Ray Baker @bigbabyray.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
Yes but not in the same way. Housing is a lot less fluid than the jobs market. A company can add jobs far quicker than i can build you a home.

It’s apocalyptic if we do. But every dollar and rally held to spare Graham is resources denied Sullivan, Hinson, Husted, and Marshall. Winning SC is a gimme and a wave this bad has this sort of knock on effect.
