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’d agree with your first sentence 100%. I would love to see statistics on the moral non voters and how involved they were with getting GOOD candidates elected though. I’m sure we could guess how involved they were.

      The way you phrased that, the answer is tautologic: statistically, 100% of them were “involved”.

      Their involvement may not have extended much beyond a blanket rejection of everyone the DNC tried to shove down our throats, but they were certainly “involved”.

      I would go just a little bit further and say that they were involved in the only way that actually matters.
