It was gas prices. It was the war. It was also the corruption. The incompetence. The tariffs. The playing nice with Russia. The impression of cruelty. The overly aggressive deportations. The accidental arrests of American citizens who were Hispanic. The arrogance. The ballroom. The reflecting poll. The golf courses. The arch. The Qatari 747. The aggressive redistricting push. The threats against enemies.

The voters have spoken, and I want to extend my congratulations to James Talarico on his election to the U.S. Senate. I look forward to meeting him and offering my assistance with his transition as he prepares to serve Texans in the U.S. Senate.

Scott Colom would be the first Black person elected to represent Mississippi in the U.S. Senate since Reconstruction. He's leaning into history in his closing message. nitter.gq/scott_colom/status/211…
Medgar Evers was killed in his driveway because he refused to accept a Mississippi where some were denied the right to vote. He stood with thousands who marched, organized and sacrificed so future generations could have a voice. We owe it to them not to take that right for granted. On Tuesday, honor their legacy. Vote.

Oh please. Trump made the decision and is looking for at least 1 scapegoat. He said he knows more than the generals. I also don't get why the people around him don't know that loyalty is a one way street.

Does he even need advisors anymore? He’s about to lose the midterms, has only 2 years left, and blames Iran for the loss. If he hadn’t started the war, gas prices wouldn't have spiked—and those prices will ultimately decide this election. #Midterms2026 #Trump #Iran
If he loses the midterms tomorrow, will he stop being nice to Iran? That's what his words imply—Vietnam and stupid presidents. #Midterms2026 #Trump #Iran #USPolitics #BreakingNews
