Former Trump campaign chairman and White House chief strategist Steve Bannon told his podcast viewers that Republicans should take Tuesday night’s losses to heart, saying: “The midterms start tonight, and the warning signs are flashing.” He observed that “Democrats just flipped two Georgia commissioners,” marking “their first statewide wins in 30 years.”
Far-right influencer Mike Cernovich (who spawned the “Pizzagate” conspiracy theory) tweeted: “Ted Cruz and Mark Levin are walking Trump into impeachments and then prison. 2026 will be a blood bath.” MAGA podcaster Jack Posobiec likewise warned that “2026 will be worse if we don’t course-correct.”
I really hope we’re even allowed to have an election in 2026.
My Spidey Sense tells me he’ll start a war in the next 12 months then get the Supreme Court to side with him on postponing elections during wartime, and then we’ll stay in a permanent state of war afterwards.
No. A presidential election has never been postponed … EVER. There were elections even during the Civil War.
Trump can try this route to stay in office… but he will not be president and his wartime rule will only be as strong as the guards around him. He will become a domestic threat to the Constitution if he tries to stay in office unelected.
Uh… The dude already tried to stay in office unelected. That’s what the Jan 6 riot was. He faced no consequences, and then got elected again.
Didn’t stay in office tho
