How much money did Kamala Harris have for her campaign? It dwarfed Trump, who basically had Musk’s money and Turning Point running his get out the vote apparatus and then dominated the airwaves via new media.

There’s plenty of gay republicans. If we’re going by grindr data, probably a lot more than let on. I don’t find that weird. They just don’t make being gay their identity. Most Republicans don’t care about gay marriage, but a growing part of the country apparently wants it illegal again so there is that. The issue of adoption for gay couples, and especially surrogates, is a contentious issue amongst the right for gay people. But the ones who are conservative and gay, understand that, but also are typically white men.. and Democrats aren’t exactly friendly to them either. They also think, rightfully so, that the lefts embrace of TQ is killing gay acceptance.

Shes kind of “off”. Just doesn’t have it. More than ever, that’s a thing in politics nowadays. She also has a weird riff with Trump. The only people who called her a rising star are the Republicans who think any black conservative is a rising star because they want to use an identity politics reverse UNO card.

Its a big part… Candace and Fuentes are singularly obsessed with Israel No, he’s not gay. Dave Rubin is gay. Maybe that’s who you’re thinking of. He’s also with Daily Wire. Scott Bessent, who’s front and center in Trump’s economic policy, is also gay fwiw.

SC isn’t following NC, despite a similar per capita population influx. Its as red as it’s ever been and both Greenville and Charleston have Republican Mayors. NC/GA are trending purple, just like PA/MI are doing the same. Florida and Ohio have become solid red, meanwhile Virginia and Colorado are solid blue with occasional false hope for R’s. The electoral realignment is that safe southern states in NC/GA for R’s and safe Rust Belt states like PA/MI for D’s are now the new battlegrounds.

Tucker/Candace/Fuentes vs MAGA vs Mainstream Conservatives is a major problem. Charlie Kirk was the bridge between those groups (Fuentes aside) And while his death may have spurred some positive movement amongst young people in certain areas for conservatism, Republicans are going to struggle to figure out how to navigate the splintering of these groups.

Perfect storm for Virginia where the lead GOP candidate was horrible & government shutdown mobilized NoVa into militant Dem. Miyares is about as milquetoast and competent as it gets for a politician nowadays. Generally viewed as doing a good job as AG. Yet lost to psychopath because Sears dragged the ticket down and NoVa is furious over the shutdown.

I kind of agree. I know some black men who are old school democrats. Clients of mine. We talk politics. They can talk politics and leave it at that. Then truly care about you as a person. The SSRI addled single white women, black single mothers, MSNBC boomers and pro-trans community dgaf… many of them - they’d be happy if Republicans were murdered in the street. This is where we are.

Ok Ann Selzer, calm down. Virginia swung like this due to the government shutdown. As I pointed out above, Jay Jones in an off year outperformed Kamala Harris in Northern Virginia. NYC imported the third world and those new voters brought their government with them. New Jersey is the state that R’s better pay attention to as it had been trending redder, but with the economy not getting better… Trump, and by extension Ciatarelli, were resoundingly rejected last night. If Trump can’t turn the economy around, stop focusing all his energy on foreign policy and tariffs… the midterms will look like last night. More structural issues for Republicans are that they consistently do not show up in off year elections. The base of men, married folks, white working class needs to be poked and prodded to vote while Democrats will vote for any pos with a D next to their name. Second, the politics of mass migration are now in full effect. We’ve seen it in Minnesota and other smaller places, but it’s on full display in NYC - acknowledged by their new leader who thanked everyone last night except native born Americans. Import a dependent class of people and socialist policies will take root where they are. We’ve been playing footsie with this for a while.. and now it’s here in a very real form. Whether it succeeds and spreads or fails, thus becoming an albatross for Dems remains to be seen.

Insane quote. Democrats simping for “govern me harder daddy”

This. We have a lot of pieces locked up comparative to most teams. That’s a factor when looking at our cap space relative to other teams as well. Extend Bosa and McGovern and then see where we are. A guy like Landon Jackson was drafted to replace AJ, who is likely pricing himself out of our range with how well he’s playing this year. In regards to the IOL, we have Anderson, SVPG and Grable who can compete for an open spot. Team is in a good place next year, like it was this year.. which is why I can’t kill Beane for not burning picks on a Shaheed… we lack elite players, not good players.. have plenty of those.

On the bright side, the shutdown likely ends soon now that it’s done its job in Virginia. NoVa voted for Jay Jones at a higher clip than Kamala Harris.

Republicans win married women. No idea what battles R’s are picking with moms.

Lmaoooo

I’ll argue it. Cuomo and Sliwa are ridiculous. But Mamdami doesn’t win, doesn’t even stand a chance, if New York was made up of New Yorkers as they supported Cuomo/Sliwa at almost 70% Young transplants feeling strangled by the high costs of NYC and foreign born voters wanting handouts delivered him the city. He’s clearly a talented politician, but that doesn’t matter if the voting base isn’t imported. Which is why Biden did what he did, and why Dems will continue this immigration strategy in future administrations.

Youngkin has a 55% approval rating. 1/4 who support Youngkin’s job as Governor voted for Spanberger. Winsome-Sears ran a horrible campaign and the Govt shutdown essentially guaranteed Dem sweeps in Virginia. Just didn’t think they’d pull the lever for Jay Jones over a run of the mill, non-MAGA AG in Miyares. For me, Jay Jones, along with Trump losing his gains in NJ are the takeaways. Why did he lose his gains in NJ? Because the economy isn’t good. How did Jay Jones win? Because Democrats will vote for anything with a D next to it. Republicans, especially those infighting, need to take notice of where we are now. Also, Trump can chill on the whimsical tariff nonsense anytime now.

The idea that native born New Yorkers lost their city to transplants and foreign born voters doesn’t sit right to me. Sorry .. I know that’s the Democrat wet dream.. to import a permanently dependent voting class.

I know Republicans who just couldn’t vote for Herschel. Just couldn’t vote for Mark Robinson. Democrats couldn’t wait to pull the lever for a man who wants 45% of his constituents dead or to be witnessed dying in their mothers arms.

*transplants and foreigners

I generally supported Ben Shapiro’s plea for conservatives to reject Tucker/Fuentes types but if Democrats are going to elect any flaming pile of ish that has a D next to their name, like Jay Jones, I think this conservative infighting needs to stop and anyone is tolerated as long as they oppose the left.

He better figure out a way to “freeze the rent”

America’s future sounds amazing. Blue state cities run by foreign socialists and conservatives electing groypers as a response.

Like Mamdami ushering in socialism for NYC, Republicans just need to let this stuff happen so Dems can’t pretend it’s some abstract worry. If women don’t care about this in blue states, take the guardrails off and let it happen.

This is best case scenario for R’s in the midterms and for Elise Stefanik to pull a long shot upset in the Governors Race.

Liberal, typically unmarried, women largely support transgender men playing women’s sports. They also demand unfettered immigration and a more “compassionate” justice system. We can’t be more pro-women than them if the only women’s protection they care about is abortion up to birth.
