When Trump calls for Iran to nuke Los Angeles and San Diego, and his crowd of MAGA faithful cheer in response, we witness the completion of a process of psychological transformation associated with totalitarianism. Urging physical harm to fellow citizens has become a test of fidelity to the Leader.

The most shocking part of Trump’s comments is what our reaction says about us
Listening to the president at a rally these days is a mix of deja vu and word salad, but his decade-long project of division remains abnormal and dangerous

Both RFK Jr and Pete Hegseth don’t believe that microorganisms exist. Because they can’t see them. Morons. So vaccines and antibiotics don’t work and treating food for nonexistent germs is useless. They believe the lack of testosterone & progressive viewpoints to be the prime cause of illness.

Pew's poll is particularly notable because of its massive sample size; an N of just over 5,000 survey respondents. One particularly interesting finding on immigration is that the issue has slightly lost salience for Republicans and gained significant salience for Democrats since the 2022 midterms.
Table: Compared with 2022, Republican and Democratic voters priorities in 2026 have shifted in different directions on many issues, including the economy.

On immigration, 76% of Republican Registered Voters (RVs) in 2022 rated the issue as "very important for their vote for Congress." That has now dropped to 72% in 2026. By contrast, it was at 36% for Democrats in 2022, and is now up to 53%, a net 17 percent increase.

The biggest issue, however, continues to be the economy. 92% of Republicans rated the economy as important in 2022, but that's now dropped to 82%. The next highest issue for Republicans is immigration at 72%, followed by the future of democracy at 69%, then violent crime at 64%.

For Democrats, 65% rated the economy as very important in 2022, and that's now 88%, the highest issue, beating out the future of democracy (85%), healthcare (82%), and education (74%).
