Members stevenkesslar Posted 8 hours ago Members Posted 8 hours ago There is a slew of articles out there debating whether looming cuts to Medicaid or increasing hunger among working class Trump voters or a 9 % spike in electric bills since January will actually help Democrats in the midterms. Lots of Republicans say their voters won't notice or believe a word Democrats say. If there is a particularly bad sign for Trump in the midterms, it is this, I think: Trump faces a MAGA rebellion over Epstein outcry Huh? What the fuck? Over 10 million people will be thrown off Medicaid. Food banks can not possibly make up for the spike in hunger that is going to put stress on working class budgets. The deficit will skyrocket. Even liberal perma-scold Ruy Teixeira is excited that Democrats are for once embracing something like an "all of the above" energy strategy, and plan to blame Trump for a 9 % spike in electric bills this year. Since he is killing off everything Biden did to support solar and wind - which is popular with voters, just like natural gas and oil. All this is going on, and MAGA is having a crisis over Epstein? Hate to say it. But I almost feel sorry for Trump. Isn't he the MAGA master? Isn't he supposed to be able to control these people? Can't he give them a treat or something? I am laughing my ass off. I agree with my Sister In Cock that Trump is insane and dangerous. But this makes him and Pam Bondi look more like the wardens in a fucking lunatic asylum. My point about the midterms is this. I think we know for a fact that when Obama was King, Democrats did better when he was on the ballot - 2008, 2012 - than when he was not in 2010 and 2014. Same is true with Trump. 2018 and 2022 did not go well for Republicans. So that is baked into the cake, anyway. But now we have working class Trump voters who will be hearing true things about hospitals closing and Medicaid cuts and spikes in their food and energy bills. And meanwhile MAGA is going nuts about Epstein. A lot of these whack jobs are not going to vote. They didn't in 2018 and 2022. This likely presages that they are off in some alternative brain rot universe called Tik Tok. They won't believe a thing Democrats say, or vote for them. But they won't bother to support their local Republicans either. They'll post some wild shit on Tik Tok. The delicious irony for me is that at some point if you want to be POTUS you actually do have to be The Establishment. Which is what a lot of MAGA diehards rebel against. So Trump is now The Establishment. Quote Mike Davis, the MAGA legal brawler and occasional Oval Office visitor, has taken up defending Trump’s DOJ ... Davis argues DOJ can’t release more, including that there is grand jury material involved, court records under seal, child pornography involved, the need to protect victims of “heinous crimes,” and “unsubstantiated, bogus claims, like we saw during the Kavanaugh proceedings, where you had double and even triple hearsay.” Makes sense to me. 9 out of 10 lawyers surveyed, Republican or Democrat, would probably say that is the right thing to do. But not in MAGA Brain Rot Land. They want an inquisition of Bill Clinton! But not their felon rapist Master who apparently can't control their barking. What the fuck? This is how Republicans survive 2026? Good luck guys! I'm tempted to say those who live by the sword die by the sword. It's more like those who get elected by brain rot will fail thanks to brain rot, just like in 2020. There are a lot of working class people and poor people who did vote for Trump in 2024 precisely because they didn't like the price of food or gas or electricity or a home. Those are the people Democrats have to win back. Not these fucking lunatics. Quote

Hungry kids, grannies kicked out of their nursing homes, masked thugs "disappearing" AMERICAN citizens, shuttered hospitals and clinics, NO healthcare, skyrocketing prices, a fucked up international Trade system , and a Presidential cabinet full of incompetent Morons ALL mean NOTHING to MAGA..... A DEAD Jew Pedophile is the thing that "fires them up"..... I resally dont know what to say or feel about this one, other than to let them EAT THEMSELVES.......... Trump NEEDS them, and they will make HIM PAY ! stevenkesslar 1 Quote

Epstein seems like a 3rd rail to the Dems more than anything. That said, can I stop worrying that enough non-lunatic voters will step up during the Midterms? Do we all still worry a bit how Republicans voters believe some or all of the following? JFK Jr is alive ANTIFA did the attack on Jan 6th, even though Congress was confirming a Dem The earth is flat Biden stole the election Chemtrails are a deep state threat Jews want to replace American workers Government weather experiments cause flood disasters 84% of Republicans view RFK jr favorably Vaccines are dangerous Herd immunity is a proper medical strategy NASA staged the Moon landing Powerful Democrats engage in extraction of adrenochrome (a chemical falsely believed to have life-extending properties) from children's blood. Radical communist Democrats are allowing post birth abortion. Radical Democrats allow public school nurses to surgically remove a student's penis, M-to-F surgery, without the parents knowledge. They're eating the cats, their eating the dogs........ they're eating the pets The Biden crime family Hillary's laptop Hunters' laptop Am I alone, doubting the Dems will get their campaign act together such as Fresh messaging geared towards young voters Messaging geared towards Latinos Engage social media stars like Carlos Eduardo Espina Engage success stories eg Stacey Abrams turning GA Blue for Biden and the Senate? Or will Dems sit around and assume enough voters will do the right thing? Quote
