The landslide victory of a Demofiend in a Texas State Senate seat in Texas, in a district carried by President Trump by 17 points in 2024, caps a string of telling GOP losses since Inauguration Day. “Whoa, Nellie,” as sportscaster Keith Jackson used to proclaim. The Dems hadn’t won this seat since 1994.
The Lone Star MAGA comeuppance follows similar routs in New Jersey and Virginia gubernatorial races, to say nothing of the international impact of Zohran Mamdani’s communist takeover of New York City, which was copy-catted in Seattle.
One cause of all this trouble — in addition to Republican voters who stay home when Sir Donald isn’t on the ballot — is the flight of Latinos back into the Demofiend fold. Those loose-cannon immigration raids as portrayed on liberal newscasts are taking a heavy toll, evidently.
One thing, and perhaps the only thing, going for the GOP in the fall is a huge warchest it has built up to the tune of $375 million to spend on races. President Trump is also planning many campaign swings, along with a midterm GOP convention, to try to rally the troops.
The GOP’s best hope is to get ICE and mmigration off the evening news (good luck on that), along with a strong economy that not only includes strong wage growth but also dramatic price moderation, if not downright deflation.
My guess is that the liberal media will have their revenge at the polls this year, as continuous coverage of ICE in every possible bad light, along with inflation that won’t go away, will give the left — especially the commie far left — a great day on November 3, 2026.
