Here’s how it’s going for me.
Hey @RepAnnWagner if you’re wondering why, for the first time in my life, I’ll be voting for a Democrat for national office, It’s because you sit there silent while this insanity continues from this administration.

Thinking about how this is what the Trump administration spent BILLIONS on. Terrorizing communities instead of fixing the economy. Cool man! Let’s see how that works out on Tuesday.
ICE in Puerto Rico looking for Dominicans, Haitians. Lady at the end is a legend. She said fascists have nothing better to do than bother people in hardworking communities. “Traitor,” she said pointing at the agent to his face. “And you, you can go to hell,” she told the other.

.@mcuban says Democrats need a concrete plan if they want to run on Medicare for All: “It's sloganeering, not actually trying to do something. When I talk to people about Medicare for All, and they say, ‘Oh, you hate Medicare for All ’… I’m like, 'Show me the plan.'”

Pro tip: If you want to catch voter fraud, look at Republican voters.
Trump: "Anybody reporting Voter Fraud in the past Elections, or the upcoming 2026 Midterm Election, will be paid $1,000,000 upon the arrest and conviction of those that created the Fraud! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"

If the GOP is so confident the polls are that far off, why is the president campaigning for Senate candidates in states he won by 16, 18, 20 and (just last night) 23 points? That would seem a gross misuse of his time this late in the campaign.
NEW: Speaker Mike Johnson tells @LauraIngraham that polls are “inaccurate” and “grossly underestimating Republican enthusiasm.” “Keep voting. Shock them.” “We do not want to go back to crazy.” “I'm afraid if these Democrats took control of Congress, it would be crazier even than the Obama years

When she announced her run for senate @hinsonashley said she would be Trump’s best ally in the Senate. She won’t be telling him anything.
Ashley Hinson, Wednesday: I’ll tell Trump buying Russian diesel is a bad idea. Ashley Hinson, today: 👇 Q: Did you talk with President Trump about the diesel deal with Russia? A: “I didn’t get a chance to talk with him directly about it at the rally.”

.@gtconway3d unloads on Trump, Vance, and Ramaswamy over the vile attack ad against Amy Acton. "These people are so infected with Trump's sociopathy that they actually turn down any possible opportunity they have to demonstrate to the world that they have any decency."
