So Much for that MAGA Mandate [View all]

For a year, Trump and MAGA have been gloating about an imagined mandate. They told us their “massive landslide” meant they could govern without restraint. It’s been demoralizing for anyone who’s actually listened to what Donald Trump promised to do in his second term.

But Tuesday night was a refreshing reminder that Americans don’t like where he’s taking us. After nine months of Republican control in Washington, most Americans are dumbfounded, angry, and ready for a change.

We’re headed for a historic, though now predictable, midterm wipeout for Republicans — and likely many more tantrums from the President along the way.

Republicans lost because of Donald Trump and the economy. This is uncomplicated and should give Democrats a clear roadmap for 2026.
