I really believed the second term would be better than the first. I voted for him. Both parties left us. Where do America First voters go now?
Ten months off Iran with no finish line, and the ship that's supposed to relieve them is parked in Singapore. Those sailors have families waiting at home. When do they get to come back?
🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 Who’s still out there? Navy destroyers have been parked off Iran for 10 months with no finish line, and the carrier meant to relieve them is sitting in Singapore
Bobby Jones, a retired destroyer officer, says the escorts that stayed behind when the Lincoln went home are now at month 10 or 11, maintenance cycles are stacked on top of each other, and a Pacific carrier group had to be pulled in because nothing else was ready.
The Roosevelt now taking a port call in Singapore tells him the strike window just got pushed.
Bobby’s point is that nobody on either side has a plan past the blockade.
Iran has shown real restraint, Washington is playing tit-for-tat because it doesn’t know what else to do, and the two things America wants most, inspectors inside Pickaxe Mountain and open shipping, run into one wall: inspectors can’t be un-let-in, sanctions can be flipped back on in a second, and Tehran knows it.
His bottom line: there will be a toll on Hormuz, Pakistan and Qatar will broker it, and the crews on those ships will be the last to hear.

One last minute "no." That's how close we came to restarting a war he ran on ending. How close is too close?
🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 I spent today on calls with sources on both sides of this war... Trump came within one last-minute "no" of restarting it
Here's the rest of what they told me...
Trump sat in the Situation Room two days running with strikes fully staged.
Embassies were packing, Iraq closed its airspace, even Cyprus was calling around.
He walked out and said NOT YET.
The White House is now three camps: Rubio and Bessent want the blockade and the status quo, Vance and Witkoff want a deal, and CENTCOM's commander leads the finish-it camp, which is losing its pull.
Swapping Susie Wiles for Stephen Miller, who pitched the job on winding the war down, is one of the clearest signs yet.
The talks were the real story. This morning Bloomberg had a breakthrough close.
By afternoon, two sources on opposite sides of the table told me within ten minutes of each other that it had collapsed.
The Qataris are furious at Iranian stubbornness, and the sticking point is sequencing: sanctions can come back tomorrow, but uranium shipped abroad and inspectors inside bombed sites can't be undone, so Tehran won't move first.
Make no mistake, Trump calls the shots here, not Netanyahu... and today he stepped back from the edge.
He'll be asked again soon... what matters is who's in the room when he is.

I gave that man everything.
I wore his jersey. I defended him at the dinner table. I voted for him.
Then he stopped playing for us, and when I said so out loud they called me a communist for noticing.
I'm not leaving the country.
I just won't wear a jersey for a coach who left us on the field.

51%.
That's how many voters told NBC they're unhappy with their own finances.
First time in 30 years of NBC polling that more people said dissatisfied than satisfied.
I didn't need a poll to feel that, but I'm glad somebody counted.
(NBC News poll, Oct 28 to 30.)
Is Washington finally listening?
Half of America owns 1% of the stock market, per Goldman Sachs using Fed data.
Private sector wages and salaries after inflation are down 0.6% from a year ago, per the BLS Oct 30 report.
I voted for him.
A rally doesn't pay my bills.
Who was Wednesday's rally for?
122.7 million people voted Tuesday. That's the second highest midterm turnout in over a century, per the University of Florida Election Lab.
I voted for him.
Showing up and counting isn't cowardice. It's the only vote we get.
Who exactly was silent?
Enter here before the 25th:

He called us weaklings and said he didn't want our support anymore.
I voted for him.
Last night millions of us took him at his word.
We heard you, Mr. President.

43% of voters said one reason they voted was to say no to Trump.
He told them to pretend his name was on the ballot.
Pretending works both ways.
The Republicans suffered a thrashing in the US midterms, marking a huge setback for Donald Trump, who had urged voters to “pretend” he was on the ballot
The party has lost majorities in both the House and Senate, which will severely hinder the president’s ability to pass legislation.
And, with the next presidential election just two years away, questions will surely begin to mount over whether they stick with the MAGA movement or pivot away from it.
$1,116.85.
That's what the war has cost the average household in gas and diesel since February 28, per Brown University's tracker.
Gas is $4.12 a gallon. Diesel is $6.28.
That wasn't a mood in the air.
That was our fill up.
🇺🇸 TRUMP BASICALLY SHRUGGED OFF THE MIDTERM LOSSES.
He said it was “just a point in time” and argued presidents almost always lose ground in midterms, regardless of party or performance.
“There was a mood in the air, I guess.”
Trump then pointed to the rare exceptions and brought up the post-9/11 political environment:
“One of the times there’s a World Trade Center. So, you know, that was like an automatic gimme.”

427 to 1.
Then he called it a hoax.
Four promises. Four receipts.
I voted for him.
In October he said pretend he's on the ballot.
Last night he said he wasn't.
Americans heard him the first time.
Shadow Sentinel retweeted
The guy standing between the two cliques gets ignored by both.
Each side wants a populist who tells them they're right.
Nobody wants the one who won't pick a team.
That's exactly why you should be listening to him.
