And who ends up coming out to these midterm elections?
Well, it's usually the most diehard of the supporters, the most MAGA of the supporters.
And so, so many of these politicians know that if they are not completely subservient to Donald Trump, somebody even more radical, even further to their right,
I mean, that's why we keep moving further and further and further, is going to come along and going to primary them.
And this is something we've seen over and over and over again over the past few years in the Trump era of people who maybe at some point reach a breaking point to decide, I am going to not go along with Donald Trump on the Epstein files, right, like a Thomas Massey.
and then you see donald trump try to uplift a candidate to try to force somebody like that out that's why they are so afraid of donald trump despite the fact that he is the most unpopular president that we have ever seen and we've now heard people like democratic leader hakeem jeffries uh announced that
Democrats are looking at these plans.
I also want to be clear, the effects on these upcoming midterms are going to be fairly minimal.
I mean, you see what Florida is doing, you see what Louisiana is doing, but the real impact of this is going to be seen kind of 2028 and beyond.
But what we're noticing is Hakeem Jeffries, Democratic leader, you're seeing all these governors now say, okay, well, if this is the new standard,
We're going to gerrymander our seats.
We're going to redistrict that.
We're going to be super aggressive.
I've seen people throw out saying, hey, in California, we have 50 plus seats.
We're going to make those all Democratic seats.
I've seen Jeffrey say that he's going to target four different states at minimum in order to try to do this.
And now I 100% agree with the need to fight fire with fire.
And they absolutely they need to do this right.
They have to do this.
But I will totally acknowledge and admit that I hate it.
