Blog/News: So…The Midterms…

Welp, the midterms were last week and judging by the state of things, we may or may not be screwed.

To start with all the concerning stuff that happened, a bunch of states got flipped blue, a bunch of communists got elected, we now have a Muslim in the Senate who has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, and the GOP is scrambling to figure out what happened. They can’t seem to figure out that while they were running on some important stuff, the Trump admin has shot itself in the foot with the tariffs Trump imposed early in his presidency that have – in large part – made everything more expensive. It also doesn’t help that the Right has now split into the Right (normal, reasonable conservatives) and the far-Right (the psycho, Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes, Israel-hater types.) Nor does it help that while the Democrats were running some people with very questionable backgrounds, Republicans were also running people who are shady to say the least.

Thus, looking at the country right now, everyone should be worried about what’s going to happen in 2028. Because of how much the GOP has fumbled the ball, I would say it’s very likely that we’re going to have a Democrat in office, and when that happens, it’s going to be chaos. We have only to look at what Elissa Slotkin said, implying that she wants to persecute Trump staffers as a warning to anyone thinking of working for Trump.

If they are saying this publicly now, just think about what they’ll do with a Democrat in office. At that point, I don’t think they’ll stop by persecuting the Trump staffers. They’ve already made it clear they want conservatives dead, and they will probably start moving in the direction of persecuting anyone to right of the Clintons.

But, to end on a more positive note, this type of thing usually happens. It’s common that the pendulum swings from one extreme to the next during the mid-terms and it’s rare that it ever stays put. Hopefully, if we do get a Democrat in office, they’ll screw up so much and anger so many Americans that the Republicans can retake all the ground they lost. But that’s assuming the Republicans don’t fumble the ball again and the gulags aren’t built yet.

Until next time,
