1) Folks, Harpy Halperin, a D activist, has nevertheless been saying for two weeks the race is over.
2) Now, combine that with my lead story in "Today's News" () which was The Hill story "Four Reasons Harris is Losing" or a title to that effect.
3) D activists such as Harpy and the Hill don't do this by accident.wildorldofpolitics.com
4) The Hill doesn't run any story without DNC approval.
5) One possibility is that they are really trying to "help" Cackles by lighting a fire under her. But as Harpy says, it's endgame and really too late. People have started voting.
6) Did you see AZ and Maricopa Co today??
7) Off the charts for Rs, as I predicted. So they are already seeing this data.
8) Another possibility is that, having seen this data, they are in full freakout mode about not just losing the Senate, but LOSING FULL OPERATIONAL CONTROL DUE TO AN R MARGIN OUTSIDE THE . . .
8) contd . . .TREASON LEVEL OF SUSAN "TOM" COLLINS AND MURCOWSKI.
9) Personally, I do not trust the new Utah analgland until he proves he is trustworthy, there fore we need 53 minimum (plus J.D. Vance) and better, 54.
10) I think they know if we get 54 in the senate . . .
10) contd . . . they really can't even pretend that Yertle is working on Trump's behalf.
11) So are these hit pieces really red lights aimed at DNC/donors to force a realignment of the money? Possible.
12) A third, but less likely, possibility is that they are prepping . . .
12) contd . . . the base for a very devastating result on election night, knowing that under certain circumstances, the DemoKKKrat Party might fracture altogether.
13) I'm happy with #2 or 3.

1) Four years ago I wrote that "The Suicide of the House Is Complete," mostly due to the inability of EITHER party to pass basic budget bills, but also the stupid Botoxic-led meaningless impeachments.news.gallup.com/poll/697421/tr…
2) Now here is Gallup, which says that trust in the executive has GROWN from the 1970s from 75% to 87%. Yes, part of this is "partisanship." We saw that with the useless Senate in the SpewMore Shutdown.
3) But both houses seem totally incompetent & incapable of doing their jobs.
4) DemoKKKrats aren't gonna like this at all. Basically, their source of "opposition" ---Congress---has shot off both feet. Thus when J.D. Vance runs, he will increasingly be viewed more favorably.
4) contd . . . never know what he's going to do. In the past, whether Reagan or Bush, leakers would ensure that the DemoKKKrat bacteria-dippers would have well-advanced warning for new actions/issues/agenda items and would organize a FULL resistance before it came out.
5) All thanks to leaks. Think of 2005 when W sought to BEGIN to fix SS by privatizing just 2% of a person's SS funds. Word leaked before he could even roll out the program. It was dead before it started.
6) Today? We had THREE different stories in three days about what . . .
1) As I have been saying for over a year, the age of AI and data centers is upon us. David Blackmon's column today shows that data centers are about to surpass office center construction. blackmon.substack.com/p/5-big-energy…
2) Our side is missing the ball entirely focusing on ChiCom students, which is a temp placeholder to prevent Chy-na from immediately embargoing rare earth minerals to us. This is a sop, an "inducement" while our own mines and alliances ramp up to produce/mine REMs.
3) Likewise, for Reagan, inflation with a HIGHLY COMPLIANT fed took 1 year to tame. It's come down by about a point and a half, but needs to come down by four more points. Slowly, the Fed is helping, but not like Volcker did with Reagan. It will eventually drop a lot, UNLESS . .
1) I am not one of those, "Oh, don't worry. This is nothing." I wouldn't have said that even if we had won NJ (never stood a chance in VA).
2) Instead, I think this proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that voter reg majorities are necessary, though not always sufficient, to win.
3) Right now, everyone from Richard Baris to Steve Bannon agree that the focus must be on the economy to take away what is now the DemoKKKrats' only weapon. Trump knows this. Getting prices down is key.
4) Some of that is facilitated by tariff revenues and reducing the debt.
5) That, in turn, requires the Supes to do their job.
6) Despite oral arguments, Zen Master remains committed to his prediction that Trump will win the tariff case with the Supes.
@RealSKeshel 3) Specifically in VA, where DemoKKKrats had a voter reg lead of more than 5 points (hard to tell precisely because they don't register by party, but we know that Ds have a big reg lead there), you cannot in any way distance from Trump as an R and hope to win.
4) If anything, last night's results reaffirm how critically important it is for people like @ScottPresler to go back to PA and to nail down that final flip.
5) Turnout, esp. in NYC, was a record. And some of you think they won't run Amazing Zohran for pres?
1) I don't have "pwoof" as Lanny Davis used to say, but it seems pretty obvious that much of the supposed "infighting" & "backbiting" on X is an op by DemoKKKrats.
2) I think they KNOW they are losing and losing huge. This is the equivalent of the Germans . . .
2) contd . . . at the Battle of the Bulge sending in English-speaking German soldiers in US uniforms or civilian clothes to confuse, obstruct, and assassinate.
3) I think it is a symptom of a party that is losing huge, not a majority that is "coming apart."
4) But while that's some speculation, this isn't:
President Trump/MAGA lost almost no support whatsoever by bombing Iran (which everyone now admits made the whole peace deal possible). He has lost no support over the Epstein files. (Virtually no one cares about that now).
