Blue Tsunami or Blue Ripple?

Eight factors that could make the 2026 midterms very different from what we’re being told.

Is it really going to be a blue tsunami for Democrats in today’s midterms, or just a blue ripple?

Towering turquoise waves crash beside a rocky coastal village under storm clouds

For months, political commentators have made the same predictions. Polls favor Democrats. Republicans will lose the House, possibly the Senate, perhaps both. Americans have turned against President Trump, and Democrats have effectively won the election before voters even cast their ballots.

Well, I’m not buying it.

Yes, history favors the party out of power in midterm elections. Presidents typically lose congressional seats, and their parties frequently surrender control of at least one chamber.

But history doesn’t determine the future.

In 2002, President George W. Bush’s Republicans gained seats in both chambers following the September 11 attacks. In 1902, Theodore Roosevelt’s Republicans also gained seats in both chambers after the Philippine-American War.

Both elections unfolded under unusual circumstances, and I would argue that 2026 is anything but an ordinary election year.

Here are eight reasons why.

1. Trump is a wartime president

Let’s begin with Iran.

Whatever Americans think about the conflict, the United States faces a serious military confrontation with a regime that has fueled instability and terrorism for decades.

The Trump administration has inflicted substantial damage on Iran’s military capabilities. Economic pressures and domestic unrest have compounded the regime’s difficulties.

But the conflict isn’t over.

Will Americans view this election as an opportunity to change course, or will they opt for continuity while the conflict remains unresolved?

History offers examples of both outcomes. Voters don’t automatically reward wartime presidents.

Still, I believe the desire to bring an unfinished conflict to a conclusion could influence this election more than political pundits realize.

2. The Democrats’ financial problems

Money matters in politics, particularly in congressional races, where advertising, organization, and voter outreach can make a considerable difference.

The financial disparity between the two national parties deserves attention.

The Republican National Committee entered the final months of this election cycle with a substantially larger cash reserve than the Democratic National Committee, which continues to struggle with debt.

That gives Republicans flexibility.

They can reinforce competitive races, expand advertising, and respond to unexpected opportunities. Meanwhile, Democrats must make difficult decisions about where to focus their resources.

Remember, Trump overcame significant spending disadvantages in prior presidential campaigns. Money alone doesn’t determine an election.

But in tight House and Senate contests, additional spending in the final weeks can make an enormous difference.

Republicans shouldn’t overlook that advantage.

3. Immigration enforcement and the voter rolls

Immigration has dominated much of Trump’s presidency, and his administration has made deportations and immigration enforcement central priorities.

Americans hold strong opinions about border security, the rule of law, and state governments’ responsibilities. The administration has also increased pressure on states to maintain accurate voter rolls and to enforce voter eligibility requirements.

Consider California.

California issues driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants while operating an automatic voter registration system. Although state law prohibits noncitizens from registering, California has acknowledged past registration errors.

In October 2026, the Justice Department sued California, alleging that more than 20,000 likely noncitizens had registered and received mail ballots. California disputes those allegations, and an independent analysis has questioned the accuracy of the federal government’s list.

Here’s the question: Does California have adequate safeguards to ensure that only eligible citizens receive ballots?

(Read the Justice Department’s October 2026 lawsuit announcement.)

California’s past registration errors and the current federal lawsuit have renewed scrutiny of the state’s election administration.

This demonstrates why accurate voter rolls and reliable citizenship verification warrant serious attention to ensure election integrity.

Trump has made these issues central to his administration’s agenda. Today, voters will begin to show whether they support or reject those efforts.

4. The October surprises

And then there are the October surprises that have hit Democrats hard.

Consider Alaska.

The Senate race between Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan and Democrat Mary Peltola has attracted attention because of another candidate named Daniel J. Sullivan Jr.

Reporting has linked individuals associated with Peltola’s campaign to efforts to recruit the second Sullivan. This appears to be a ploy to confuse voters and divert support from the incumbent.

Peltola denies knowledge of the recruitment effort, and authorities have not resolved the allegations of criminal wrongdoing.

Nevertheless, the controversy has drawn national attention at a particularly inconvenient time for Democrats.

(Read the Associated Press coverage of the Alaska Senate controversy.)

Investigations and allegations involving Democratic political figures elsewhere have also attracted attention.

Of course, accusations don’t establish guilt, and investigations don’t always lead to convictions. But political controversies can influence voters long before investigators or courts reach their conclusions.

Will these developments reinforce doubts some voters already have about the Democratic Party? We’ll soon find out.

5. The Democratic Party’s internal divisions

Perhaps one of the most interesting developments is the growing tension between the Democratic establishment and its democratic socialist wing, known as the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA).

And we’re talking about more than disagreements over campaign strategy.

Democrats face fundamental differences over economic policy, Israel, foreign affairs, and the party’s future direction.

Want to see how serious those divisions have become? Look at Michigan.

Abdul El-Sayed defeated Representative Haley Stevens in the Democratic Senate primary. But just two days before the general election, Stevens did something extraordinary.

She endorsed Republican Mike Rogers.

That’s right. A prominent Democratic congresswoman endorsed the Republican candidate over her own party’s nominee.

And she didn’t do it quietly.

Stevens appeared alongside Rogers at a predominantly Black church in Detroit before publicly announcing her endorsement.

Democratic leaders reacted immediately.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer condemned her decision as a betrayal. Michigan Democratic Party Chairman Curtis Hertel went further, announcing that Stevens no longer belonged to the Michigan Democratic Party.

Think about that.

Just days before a critical Senate election, Democrats were fighting among themselves. A former Democratic Senate candidate endorsed the Republican nominee, and her party showed her the door.

(Read the Associated Press report on Stevens’ endorsement and the Democratic backlash.)

Stevens and El-Sayed have also clashed over Israel, antisemitism, and the Democratic Party’s direction.

And that brings us to the real problem facing Democrats.

Can the party accommodate its increasingly influential democratic socialist wing while retaining the support of traditional Democrats?

I believe this tension could have consequences that extend well beyond today’s election.

When prominent Democrats publicly support Republican candidates rather than their party’s nominees, it’s difficult to argue that everything is fine within the Democratic Party.

6. Trump’s rallies and his influence on Republican turnout

I’ve watched presidents campaign in midterm elections throughout my life, but Trump approaches these elections differently.

He has built his political identity around mass rallies and a personal connection with voters, including many who haven’t traditionally participated in every election.

Now he’s attempting to transfer that connection to Republican congressional candidates.

His message is straightforward: Treat the midterms as though his own name appeared on the ballot.

President Trump wants to transform hundreds of individual House and Senate contests into a national referendum on his presidency.

But here’s the question.

Will voters who supported Trump in presidential elections also support Republican congressional candidates when his name doesn’t appear on the ballot?

That’s no small challenge. A president’s personal popularity among supporters doesn’t automatically transfer to other candidates.

But Trump’s rallies and continued involvement in the campaign introduce a variable that conventional polling may not fully capture.

And I wouldn’t dismiss it.

7. The Democrats’ message and the declining influence of traditional media

What exactly are Democrats offering voters?

Much of their campaign messaging focuses on opposing Trump and his administration. But where is their compelling vision for America’s future?

And then there’s the polling.

I’ve grown increasingly skeptical of political polling, especially how the media uses it to shape public expectations. At times, it seems less like an effort to inform Americans and more like an attempt to convince conservatives that their candidates have already lost.

Consider the last two presidential elections in which Trump won.

In 2016, several prominent election forecasters gave Hillary Clinton about a 90 percent chance of winning the presidency. Some even placed her chances higher.

And what happened?

Trump defeated her.

Then came 2024.

Throughout the campaign, public polls repeatedly showed Kamala Harris leading Trump. Even as Election Day approached, some surveys still showed her ahead.

Trump defeated her, too.

But here’s where things get interesting.

After the election, David Plouffe, a senior adviser to the Harris campaign, acknowledged that the campaign’s internal polling never showed Harris leading Trump in the battleground states.

Think about that.

While public polls suggested Harris was ahead, her campaign reviewed data that told a different story.

(Read David Plouffe’s remarks about the Harris campaign’s internal polling.)

Does that prove that every pollster deliberately manipulated the numbers? Of course not. Polling organizations use different methods, and even legitimate surveys can produce different results. However, it raises questions about how the media presents polling data and why Americans should place so much confidence in election predictions.

Now we’re hearing the same confident forecasts for today’s midterms.

Perhaps the polls will prove accurate this time.

But I would argue that Americans have good reason to question the certainty with which commentators make these predictions.

Polls don’t cast ballots. Americans do.

And no matter how often the media predicts a blue tsunami, voters will decide the outcome.

8. Trump’s continued influence within the Republican Party

Finally, the political establishment must not overlook one more thing: President Trump’s influence extends well beyond his rallies.

If he’s become as politically irrelevant as some commentators claim, why do Republican candidates keep seeking his endorsement?

Why do so many campaign alongside him and emphasize their ties to his presidency? Surely, if he were as failed a president as the media would like to believe, these candidates would be avoiding him like the plague.

I believe the answer is straightforward: Trump retains considerable influence over the Republican electorate.

That doesn’t mean every American approves of his presidency. Many clearly do not.

But within the Republican Party, his endorsement remains a political asset that candidates actively seek. That tells us something important about the party’s direction.

Trump hasn’t simply won elections. He has reshaped the Republican Party around a political movement that increasingly defines itself by his Make America Great Again priorities and leadership.

Whether individual candidates benefit from that association in competitive districts remains an open question. But one thing seems clear to me: Trump isn’t going away, and neither is the political movement he ignited.

Today’s election will help reveal how much influence that movement still wields.

So, what happens today?

I’ve made no secret of my skepticism about the conventional midterm narrative.

The polls favor Democrats in several key contests. Historical precedent also suggests that Republicans face a difficult political environment.

But historical averages, political commentators, and betting markets don’t decide elections.

Voters do.

And I believe there are enough unusual circumstances surrounding this election to challenge the conventional wisdom.

A wartime presidency. A significant disparity in national party fundraising. Immigration enforcement. October controversies. Democratic infighting. Trump’s rallies. Declining trust in the media. And Trump’s continued influence within the Republican Party.

None of these factors guarantees an electoral outcome. Taken together, however, they could produce a result that surprises many people.

So here is my prediction: Given these factors, I believe Republicans will retain control of both the House and Senate, provided the MAGA base turns out in sufficient numbers. At the very least, I believe Republicans will keep the Senate.

Remember, we overcame media and polling manipulation in 2016 and 2024 by showing up. Trump’s election-integrity measures could make the 2026 midterms the most secure elections of our lifetimes. If MAGA turns out, America wins. So no dooming or black-pilling today.

That’s my prediction. Today, we’ll begin finding out whether I’m right.

Don’t let polls, pundits, or betting markets convince you that your vote doesn’t matter. Today, November 3, is Election Day. The stakes are too high to sit this election out. Make your voice heard at the ballot box.

And as for that much-publicized blue tsunami?

We may discover that it was nothing more than a puddle.

Add a blue puddle

Calif. governor’s race: an ongoing demoralization campaign

Want to see an ongoing demoralization campaign in real time? Look to the California governor’s race.

Polls show Democrat Xavier Becerra leading Republican Steve Hilton by double digits, and some Republicans already seem to have decided the race is over.

Friends and acquaintances keep asking me, “Dex, what do you think of the governor’s race?” My answer is simple: ignore the polls, get out and vote.

That question is rarely about the candidates themselves. They’re really asking, “Is Steve Hilton done?” The only useful response is to reject that premise and show up.

Hilton is not a full-throated MAGA supporter. Despite President Trump’s endorsement, Hilton has deliberately downplayed that support to reach undecided and moderate voters.

Given Trump’s supposed weak numbers in California, the strategy is understandable, even if it frustrates conservatives who want a more aggressive fighter. Whether that tightrope walk ultimately helps or hurts Hilton remains to be seen.

Hilton’s performance in the Sept. 30 debate with Becerra is beyond doubt. If you missed it, you can watch the full debate on YouTube. Hilton dominated.

He hit Becerra with hard facts, including his failure as HHS Secretary to account for hundreds of thousands of missing migrant children during the Biden border surge. He also reminded voters that Becerra once gave Gavin Newsom an “A” for how he handled California’s homelessness crisis.

Becerra largely stuck to the familiar script: Trump will take away abortion rights, and Trump’s policies will close clinics, and so on. He stayed on message and avoided major stumbles, which is why liberal pundits declared him the winner. But Hilton landed sharper blows and refused to play defense.

Afterward, a quiet media effort seemed to bury the debate. For a major gubernatorial matchup, it drew surprisingly little sustained discussion. Becerra has also declined a second debate and limited his public appearances: an approach that feels familiar to anyone who watched Joe Biden in 2020.

None of this changes the fundamental point. Polls and media narratives routinely suppress conservative turnout by convincing people the outcome is already decided. That is the real trap.

Hilton may not be the MAGA candidate many California Republicans prefer. However, Hilton is the first serious chance, in over a decade, to begin breaking Democratic control of the state. That is worth fighting for.

Patriotic Californians cannot afford to sit this election out. Give the finger to the narrative that your vote is worthless because the polls say Hilton cannot win.

To quote Brigadier General Anthony McAuliffe’s reply to the Germans’ demand for American surrender at Bastogne: “Nuts!”

Whenever we read or hear about demoralizing poll numbers aimed at conservatives, our response should be: “Nuts!”

Americans never quit when it all seemed lost at the Battle of the Bulge during World War II. Their weapons were artillery and small arms fire.

Now, the weapons are our votes. With that said, do everything you can to defeat the enemy. Get out and vote, whether by mail or in person!

Get out and vote!

If you sit out this midterm because some conservative influencers say it’s a wasted vote, or if you vote Democrat because gas and diesel prices are high, you are being played. Get out and vote!

Republican voters encouraged to participate

If your vote or apathy hands either chamber back to the Democrats, you are giving the globalists exactly what they want. Get out and vote!

I am aiming this piece at Republicans and at Democrats who have not yet fully surrendered to the hive mind. If you are angry with President Trump over fuel prices, step back. The same forces that have spent years trying to break him are manipulating you.

The dirty little secret is obvious to anyone paying attention: global speculators deliberately keep these prices elevated because of worries about war. Could this also serve to influence the midterm election?

Regardless of the motive, gas and diesel prices will come down afterward. Book it.

President Donald J. Trump is the most pro-energy president in modern history. “Drill, baby, drill” is not a slogan for him; it is policy. He has already put more oil on the market through actions in Venezuela and the ongoing campaign that is choking Iran’s ability to close the Strait of Hormuz. Yet the media, the Democrats, and a handful of grifting “America First” voices are working overtime to convince you that Trump is the reason you are paying more at the pump.

The real drivers are global speculation and calculated disruption. Every time Iran fires on a tanker or launches another missile, the markets spike.

Iran is holding out not because it has a winning hand, but because high U.S. fuel prices are its best remaining hope of putting Democrats back in power to restrain Trump. Ukraine’s strikes on Russian diesel refineries serve the same purpose :raising prices so voters blame the White House. (They also suit those in Europe who still want a wider war with Russia.)

What does it say about the Democratic Party when a U.S. enemy and longtime terrorism sponsor roots for its success?

Iran is on the ropes. America is applying both economic and military pressure. The only real question is when Tehran taps out, not whether.

The most likely window is after the midterms: precisely when the political incentive to keep prices elevated disappears. Relief will come then.

But this election is about far more than the price of a gallon of gas.

This election is about whether Trump finishes restoring American sovereignty over our borders, energy, industry, and foreign policy. He is rebuilding the American System of domestic manufacturing, abundant energy, a strong military, and prosperity as the foundation of national security.

For over fifty years, globalists and the deep state were systematically dismantling that system. They shipped manufacturing overseas and restricted energy production in the name of climate ideology. Then these new world-order types told Americans we were now a “service economy.”

That was managed decline, weakening every nation-state’s ability to act in its own interest. This, so global institutions such as the UN, the WHO, and the various “international” courts could claim the final say. President Trump is reversing that decline. Those who benefit from the old order are desperate to stop him before the work is complete.

High fuel prices are their temporary tactic to demoralize you. Do not fall for it. Show up and use your power at the ballot box. Remember, there are more of us than them. We show up in overwhelming numbers; we win.

A massive Psyop

Psyop: 1. a military operation usually aimed at influencing the enemy’s state of mind through noncombative means

2.someone or something used by the government to influence the population’s opinions and attitudes— Merriam-Webster.com

Be prepared. Look and listen. Steel your mind, because a massive Psyop is being waged against you.

Case in point: AI.

PSYOP text with symbolic psychological operations imagery

A little over a month before the midterms, have you noticed a recent uptick in doomerism and blackpilling about this new technology? It’s about as subtle as a fart in an elevator full of people.

AI is going to destroy humanity, to paraphrase this hyperventilating news cycle, which all began with doomsaying prophecies from three key Anthropic figures. CEO Dario Amodei is calling for AI industries to slow the pace of development out of concerns about serious risks; Evan Hubinger, a top safety/alignment researcher, is convinced there is a greater than 10% chance that AI “could kill all humans” within the next decade; and Jacob Coxon, a researcher, recently resigned after saying AI could cause human extinction by the end of the decade.

AI fear contrasted with reality

But never fear, Democratic Senator Bernie Sanders has drafted legislation to have the federal government regulate AI. Former President Barack Hussein Obama is urging Democrats to make AI the centerpiece of their platform. AI companies are calling for government regulation. So-called “America Firster” Steve Bannon is even supporting Bernie Sanders’ AI regulatory legislation, and Netflix is preparing to air an anti-AI documentary.

Coincidence? That’s laughable. Coordinated is more like it.

First, a frightening declaration of impending doom on social media, made by tech developers so disgusted by what they are part of that they resign, goes viral, triggering multiple media reports. All of a sudden, Sen. Sanders, an avowed socialist, announces his legislation calling for massive government regulation of AI.

Then, right on cue, some private AI companies begin begging for government regulation of their product, citing their fears of what the technology could become.

Finally, the light-bringer, Obama, steps out of the shadows and offers a solution to fear: more government. You could see this coming from a mile away: a setup for a Democrat/globalist false flag, like the COVID lockdowns.

The Democrat/globalist playbook runs like this: flood the airwaves with fear-stoking news reports, roll out a documentary starring their preferred experts on the so-called invisible threat that only they can solve, then stage the frightening event that conveniently arrives right on schedule. They think we’re fools.

They’re the fools.

Here’s the reality: Whatever the media, leftists, and conservative turncoats support, my knee-jerk reaction is to oppose it. If this unified force of anti-Americanism tells me to fear something, it must be beneficial. I see an ever-growing number of patriotic Americans sharing this view.

Why, after numerous examples to the contrary, are we to now believe that Obama, Sanders, and the legacy media are looking out for us?

Also, private companies are so worried about their creation that they are begging the federal government to regulate it? That makes no sense.

I’m no cynic, but experience has shown that money and power motivate elitists. When you understand their inherent lack of benevolence, the motives behind their pontifications begin to make sense.

For instance, large AI companies calling for government regulation mean they want to choke out smaller competitors. They want to eliminate consumer choice and create a monopoly.

Think realistically: AI is happening, and nothing can stop it. The question is who will control it. If the United States doesn’t, then China, the EU, or some other rival of America will dominate by default.

Who would you rather have holding the reins of AI?

This is not a new tactic. It follows years of globalist fear campaigns: from the environmental movement, the 1970s population explosion scare, the 1980s ozone depletion panic over aerosol deodorants and hairspray, Y2K, climate change, and the COVID lockdowns. Each time, the left ginned up fear and panic over a future or invisible enemy, pushing people to believe only the experts had the answers.

In every instance, the experts’ solutions led to less personal and societal freedom through arbitrary regulations and proscriptions.
And speaking of COVID, many of you may remember that Netflix aired a documentary on pandemic preparedness in January, just weeks before the Wuhan outbreak and the WHO’s declaration of a global pandemic.

The globalists are trying to plant those seeds again: this time with AI. The manufactured emergency could arrive before the midterms or the 2028 presidential election.

This false flag might target banking and utilities, or it could hit closer to home: cell phones, personal computers, smart TVs, or everyday appliances. Whatever form it takes, globalists are telegraphing their playbook.

They always do.

The game plan is the same: an invisible virus threatens humanity and only government and the global elites can save us. What is different this time around is that more people are on to this ruse.

Stay vigilant. Reject the fear. Do not let their coordinated campaign of demoralization succeed. MAGA is winning, and they know it.

Everything Hidden Is Coming to Light


Everything hidden is coming to light. What was once whispered in private is now unfolding in public.

Two researchers examine secret and restricted files in an archive room.
Light illuminating secrets

Narratives experts and the media told us to accept as settled truth are collapsing in real time. Across politics, economics, and the courts, more Americans are scrutinizing the official story and saying, “You know what? We have to start questioning everything.”


Take the election system. Many of us suspected that expansive mail-in balloting was an open door to fraud and abuse.

We discussed it among ourselves while the official line basically said, “Nah… it’ll be fine.” Yet now, blue states fight hard to keep their voter rolls out of public view, with California, New York, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania among the most determined.

Why the secrecy if the process is as clean as they claim? After all, the gap between their talk about protecting minority voters and their refusal to provide basic transparency is hard to miss. In the end, their protests no longer sound like principle, only concealment.


We lived through the COVID lockdowns and watched local, state, and federal power expand with little restraint. Government officials and the press censored dissent, telling us to shut up, trust the experts, stand six feet apart, wear masks, and shut down our lives “to keep us safe.”

Years later, the record is clearer: many of those measures were arbitrary. Worse still, they did real harm to children’s development, closed small businesses, damaged the economy, and left a lasting residue of fear.

Those so-called paragons of knowledge turned out to be nothing but hacks. Granted, they have the degrees, yet that doesn’t make them wise. In the end, critical thinking still matters more.


Now, some sixty years after the civil rights movement, we see the fruits have turned rotten: most notably with the destruction of the black family. Rampant crime scars predominantly minority neighborhoods in our major cities. Young black males commit a share of violent crime far out of proportion to their numbers. Race hustlers keep peddling the same story of permanent American villainy and black victimhood.

A growing number of Americans are rejecting the guilt trip. We are tired of grievance activists labeling us racists simply for refusing to be ashamed of America and its great heritage.

The same pattern appears in the climate crusade. What globalists sold as planetary salvation has too often been a means of restricting energy production and industrial strength in the West. President Donald Trump has made the point plainly: refusing to develop our own oil and energy is not virtue. It is a threat to national security and sovereignty.

As patriotic Americans, we can no longer go about our business assuming government overreach is someone else’s problem. Therefore, get involved if you can. And if you cannot engage directly, still offer prayers to God for this nation.

The need for a recovery of Christianity in this country is clear, for the secular push of the past 50 years has plainly failed. The Founders did not create a theocracy, yet they built America’s laws and jurisprudence on a Christian moral foundation.

Freedom and ordered liberty do not sustain themselves. They need the principles that once undergirded them. Those who despise this country often despise the God and the faith that shaped its best instincts. Their hostility to the Constitution follows. That hostility is not abstract. It is a clear and present danger.


The Democratic Party and the permanent apparatus that protects it have too often traded in division, grievance, and contempt for the nation’s founding principles. Institutions that systematically exploit anger and erode the moral and constitutional order are not merely mistaken. They have become corrosive.


Before you can treat a sickness, you must first assess its extent: this holds true for a country as well as an individual. The cancer of corruption has run deep in America, spreading through all of our once-trusted institutions. Yet we are seeing it more clearly than ever, and as a result, we are finally taking the steps needed to rectify the spiritual and moral rot.

Praise God. The right things are beginning to be done about it. Everything hidden is coming to light.

Blackpilling and Doomerism

Blackpilling and doomerism, courtesy of America Firsters. By the way, do you even know what blackpilling is? Do you know what a doomer is?

Tired man working at a computer in a cluttered bedroom at night

They are the same thing. And you need look no further for current examples than certain so-called “America First” conservative influencers who appear determined to fracture MAGA.

I had heard both terms tossed around without clear definitions, so I looked them up. Here is the distilled reality:


Blackpilling (or “taking the black pill”) is internet slang for adopting a deeply pessimistic, fatalistic worldview. It means accepting certain harsh realities as permanent and concluding that personal effort, self-improvement, or political change is ultimately pointless.
It builds on the red-pill/blue-pill metaphor from The Matrix:
• Blue pill: remain comfortable in the illusion.
• Red pill: see unpleasant truths about society, power, and culture.
• Black pill: accept those truths and decide nothing can be done about them.

Hope itself becomes the delusion.

Doomer is the personification of that outlook: someone who believes society, the economy, culture, or civilization is in irreversible decline and that things will only get worse. The mindset blends hopelessness, inevitability, apathy, and dark humor. It stands in direct contrast to any activist or optimistic stance.


The common denominator is hopelessness.

It is bad enough that legacy media and the Democratic Party push this blackpill/doomer mindset. What makes it particularly corrosive is when it comes from voices once trusted by the right.

During the Obama and Biden years, many patriots turned to these influencers for clarity and a measure of hope. Even as policies weakened the country and eroded constitutional norms, those voices validated people’s observations and feelings. That trust was earned and is now being spent.

Four-panel collage of three men and one woman in political media settings
From left to right: Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, Candace Owens, Alex Jones, Nick Fuentes

The clearest examples right now are Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Nick Fuentes, and Steve Bannon.
Bannon is the instructive case.

Unlike some of the others, he rarely attacks Trump directly. He does not deploy “anti-Christ” rhetoric the way Tucker Carlson has, nor does he call for the 25th Amendment the way Alex Jones repeatedly has. Instead, Bannon targets administration figures, Kash Patel and others, as incompetent or as feeding the president bad advice.

The effect is the same: it plants the idea that President Donald J. Trump is being manipulated by those around him. Coming from voices whose audiences are overwhelmingly MAGA, the tactic is especially effective at sowing doubt without requiring an open break.

Whatever the individual style, the product is uniform: no optimism, little acknowledgment of tangible successes, and a steady drip of doom. Recent coverage of operations involving Iran and the Strait of Hormuz serves as a case study. The dominant message from this group has been fear: President Trump is losing, nuclear war is imminent, and boots are about to hit the ground.

Largely absent is any serious discussion of the strategic upside: disrupting a critical global energy chokepoint and weakening adversarial regimes that have long served as proxies for broader anti-American interests.

Why now, with the most consequential midterm election in a generation approaching? Undermining the most pro-American president in living memory seems strategically self-defeating for those who still claim the “America First” label.

The practical alternative on offer is not some purified movement; it is Democratic control of one or both houses of Congress. Treating President Trump as functionally indistinguishable from Biden or Obama is not analysis; it is propaganda.

Motives are fair game for speculation. Are some of these voices influenced by foreign money that benefits from American division? Are others simply resentful that the president does not take their advice? Those questions remain open precisely because the daily output is so consistently hostile to the administration their audiences elected.

President Trump’s 2024 victory was not complicated. Americans looked at open borders, institutional DEI, managed economic decline, and the deliberate stoking of racial and gender division and decided they had seen enough. They voted for a hard stop. Turning around two years later and telling those same voters that their choice was a catastrophic mistake is not tough love. It is blackpilling and doomerism.

On influencers

Influencer is a word I’ve come to notice and dislike instantly. When you hear the term social media influencer, doesn’t it sound Orwellian? As if someone is openly admitting they are there to shape how you think.

Speaker connecting with audience symbolizing unified consciousness and one voice
A speaker connects minds with an audience symbolizing unified consciousness and collective voice.

As Americans, we should be bothered by that. Hell, it should piss us off.

There are influencers across the political spectrum, but for this piece, let’s focus on the so-called conservative influencers.

What I’m about to say may irritate some people, but many conservatives became vulnerable to influencers because we spent years being vilified by the media and mainstream culture. We were labeled racists, sexists, bigots, and homophobes simply for holding views that, not long ago, were considered normal American opinions.

As a result, conservatives became eager to rally around anyone who sounded like they were finally articulating what we were thinking. The moment someone appeared intelligent, confident, and willing to fight back, we granted them credibility almost automatically. We quoted their podcasts, shared their clips, and repeated their talking points in conversations as if they were gospel.

Over time, I realized that many of these figures were not truly leading a movement. They were managing an audience.

Some of these influencers say just enough to keep people emotionally invested while steering them away from meaningful action. They keep the audience angry, engaged, and constantly consuming content, but rarely move beyond that. It’s like slowly releasing steam from a pressure cooker just to make sure it never explodes.

People start believing they are fighting for the country after spending hours listening to podcasts, watching clips, reposting commentary, and arguing online. But consuming political content is not the same as political action. At some point, outrage becomes entertainment.

In recent months, many people began noticing cracks in the façade as several prominent conservative figures started turning against President Trump and attempting to fracture MAGA support. You know the names: Candace Owens, Alex Jones, Tucker Carlson, Megan Kelly, Ben Shapiro, and others.

Clockwise from left to right: Candace Owens, Megan Kelly, Tucker Carlson, Ben Shapiro, Nick Fuentes and Alex Jones

Carlson especially stands out to me.

I remember telling friends around 2020 that something about Tucker didn’t sit right with me. This was in the aftermath of the 2020 election, when millions of Americans were questioning the integrity of the vote. Whether or not people agreed with those concerns, I felt Carlson seemed unusually eager to move on from the subject and redirect attention elsewhere.

At the time, I even submitted a piece to a mainstream conservative website questioning Tucker’s loyalty. Apparently, the article struck a nerve, and the site’s head published a counterpiece alongside mine.
Not going to lie, I started second-guessing myself afterward. I wondered whether I had unfairly criticized the guy or misread the situation entirely.

Then Fox News fired Tucker, and for a while I thought maybe I had been wrong. Some of his independent work was genuinely solid. I even wrote publicly that I might have misjudged him.
But his recent attempts to divide MAGA only reinforced my original instinct.

And that’s the main point of this article.

If your gut tells you something about a public figure feels off, don’t ignore it just because that person is popular, polished, or constantly praised online. You do not owe blind loyalty to influencers, commentators, or political celebrities.

The word influencer itself should make Americans uncomfortable.

We are descendants of people who rebelled against kings, crossed oceans, fought wars, built businesses, raised families, and carved a nation from the wilderness because they refused to be controlled. Americans were never meant to sit around waiting for internet personalities to tell them what to think.

Despite all the propaganda meant to convince us otherwise, we are not helpless, weak, or stupid.

Trust your instincts. Think for yourself. And take everything influencers tell you with a grain of salt.

Congratulations, Democrat Party

Congratulations, Democrat Party. You have demonized President Trump to the point that your most extreme supporters have deluded themselves into believing that assassinating him is equivalent to killing Adolf Hitler.

Go ahead. Keep denying your harmful rhetoric to your mainstream and social media champions all you want. We, the American people, now hear what you are hoping for.

What you appear to hope for is that one of your deranged followers does your dirty work, giving your party plausible deniability. Let me clarify what I mean by “party” before I go any further in this piece: I mean the Uniparty, the globalist elite worldwide. 

The Democrats are the gatekeepers of the globalist agenda in America: driving manufacturing out of the country, making this nation energy-dependent on foreign nations, creating sociological divisions, replacing capitalism with socialism, vilifying white people, aborting babies, ravaging the younger generation with fentanyl, legalizing marijuana and mainstream pornography, destroying the family, eliminating Christianity as the foundation of morality and law, corrupting justice, crushing the concept of merit, and using education as propaganda.

Quite a list, isn’t it? What’s more, I ask what this portends for America?

In a sane reality, this political party and the ideology it represents would be seen as the soulless, demonic enemies of this country and the free world. If you don’t believe me, compare the policies of Democrats and globalists with those of President Trump. He’s begun removing illegal aliens, starting with the most dangerous, and is making the country energy independent, returning manufacturing, reducing crime, stopping the flow of drugs into the country, growing the economy, securing elections, celebrating Christianity, re-establishing the Constitution as the foundation of our law, and honoring the Founding Fathers. He’s also removing us from NATO, the Green New Deal, and unequal trade deals. Most importantly, Trump is upending the geopolitical and economic framework that has destroyed the wealth and prosperity of average, hardworking Americans.

Are these policies fascist dictates from a would-be king? That’s what globalists, Democrats, and Republicans in Name Only (RINOs) are feverishly trying to convince you.

This is America First playing out before us in real time. We are also witnessing the abject fear and hatred among the global economic elites who will lose trillions of dollars if Trump’s policies take hold and become irreversible.

This is why Trump is vilified 24-7 in the global propaganda media: he is an existential threat to their system.

Folks, this is no longer a matter of right versus left or of Republican versus Democrat. We find ourselves in the middle of a battle between good and evil. This is not a mere cliché or a hyperbolic description that dismisses the humanity of the other side. No, this is a comparison of two opposing values.

American flag correctly oriented, half light half darkness

Patriotic Americans value the rule of law grounded in the Constitution and in Bible-based morality, revere the flag, celebrate American history, respect the hardworking, taxpaying American citizen, and honor the family based on marriage between a man and a woman. The Democrat Party, in its current state, reflects the policies of its globalist fellow-travelers, who hate America as founded (including the Constitution and the flag), want government to overrule the family, twist the law to celebrate perversion and punish those deemed enemies, despise free speech, loathe the 2nd Amendment, protect criminality, smear their enemies as racists/fascists, disparage biblical Christianity, demonize the police and military, foment chaos and rage, promote lies as truth, and have no qualms about using violence to achieve their ends.

How many times over the years have you heard these hypocrites bitching and moaning about the need for more gun control? That is, until three would-be assassins failed to kill President Trump. Then, social media is abuzz with a certain segment of leftists who are pissed off that these wackos couldn’t complete the task.

According to a 2025 Rutgers University study, half of those identified as left of center had no problem with someone murdering Elon Musk and President Trump. A 2025 YouGov survey revealed that over 20 percent of self-described younger and very liberal Americans believe political violence is justified, compared to just 6 percent of conservative Americans.

A radical and dangerous element has taken over the Democrat Party. I know the proper description is “Democratic” but that association has nothing to do with the current party. That’s why I just say Democrat Party. Moderates are looking around and realizing this is not the Democrat Party of their parents and grandparents. Hence, they are leaving in droves. Stone-cold communists and Marxists are calling the shots in this party. They have nothing to offer but fear, intimidation, slavery, and wrath.

The masks are off, and more people are seeing what the left has to offer and want no part of it. Congratulations, Democrat Party. You not only succeeded in demonizing your enemies but also, in your hatred, managed to demonize yourselves.

The MAGA “Fracture” Narrative Isn’t Organic—It’s Being Sold

The Goal is to suppress voter turnout for the midterms

You’ve heard the claim: MAGA is fracturing. But what if that MAGA “fracture” narrative isn’t organic: what if it’s being sold? In other words, pushed, amplified, and repeated to create the very disengagement it predicts?

Courtesy: Politico.com

The media keeps repeating it. Political insiders echo it. Even some conservative voices are starting to lean into it. The message is clear: Trump supporters are supposedly turning on him, disappointed, divided, and ready to walk away.

I don’t buy it.

What I see instead is a coordinated effort to create that perception: loud enough, constant enough, and emotional enough that people start questioning what they already know to be true.

Because that’s how you weaken a movement. If you can’t defeat it outright, you convince its own people it’s falling apart.
Over the past few months, the talking points have been everywhere:
• “Trump is too focused on foreign policy.”
• “He’s ignoring the economy.”
• “This isn’t what voters signed up for.”
• “Nothing’s happening fast enough.”

You’ve probably heard some version of this from friends, social media, or commentators who claim to speak for the base.

But step back for a second.

Who is actually pushing this, and why now?

If you look closely, a lot of this “internal criticism” is being amplified by voices that were never fully on board to begin with. Some of the loudest critics today were openly skeptical, or outright hostile, to Trump in previous cycles. Now suddenly, they’re positioning themselves as protectors of the movement, warning that it’s lost its way.

That should raise an eyebrow.

At the same time, legacy media outlets are more than willing to spotlight every disagreement and frame it as evidence of a civil war. We’ve seen this playbook before: selective amplification, repetition, and narrative framing used to shape perception rather than simply reflect it.

That’s not accidental.
Division is the objective.

If enough Trump voters believe that the movement is fractured, or that Trump has somehow “betrayed” them, the outcome is predictable: people disengage. They sit out. They tune out right when it matters most. And that has consequences.

If Republicans lose one or both houses of Congress in the midterms, the policy agenda stalls. Gridlock returns. And the door opens, again, for endless Democrat investigations and political theater.

Now let’s talk about the substance behind the criticism.

Conservative influencers tell us Trump is failing on the economy because his focus is overseas; that this isn’t what voters wanted.

But what do the underlying trends suggest?

The United States is attracting major investment in the energy, infrastructure, and manufacturing sectors, which are directly tied to long-term economic strength. Capital flows, domestic production, and industrial investment don’t move on headlines; they move on fundamentals. And right now, those fundamentals point toward continued energy development and the reshoring of key industries.

That matters. That’s not narrative, that’s tangible economic direction.

On foreign policy, the concern has always been endless wars: open-ended conflicts with no clear objective. Voters are right to be wary of that. But limited, strategic actions are not the same thing as the prolonged nation-building efforts that defined the last two decades.
That distinction rarely makes it into the headlines.

Here’s the bigger point: movements don’t collapse because of disagreement. Disagreement is normal. It’s healthy.
They collapse when their own people start to internalize a narrative built to weaken them in the first place: when frustration turns into disengagement.

Right now, there’s a clear effort to shape perception, attempting to turn uncertainty into doubt, and doubt into apathy.
And that’s where voters need to be careful.

MAGA has grown stronger over the past decade and is certainly not as fragile as some would have you believe. However, anti-MAGA forces are trying to convince enough people to lose confidence at the exact moment their participation matters most.

At some point, it comes down to a simple choice: Trust what you’re seeing, or trust the narrative being handed to you.
And history shows those aren’t always the same thing.

Oh, and one final note…
If you’ve been hearing the “fracture” narrative everywhere lately, it’s worth asking:
Are you seeing it?
Or are you buying the narrative?

It’s not Republican v. Democrat-It’s about direction

Look, I’m sure you’ve been as frustrated with the Republican Party as I have. Too many in leadership come off as weak, reactive, and more concerned with playing it safe than actually winning. And yeah, sometimes it feels like they’re doing just enough to irritate their own voters heading into the midterms.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, flanked by Senate Leaders speaks to the press

So, let’s just say it plainly: this isn’t about Republican versus Democrat anymore.

This is about direction. It’s about leadership. And right now, the driving force behind the Republican Party is Donald Trump. There is no version of the GOP that wins nationally without him. That’s just reality.

President Donald Trump, the driving force of the GOP

Make America Great Again (MAGA) isn’t some side movement: it is the energy of the party. And that’s exactly what makes the establishment uncomfortable. They’ve spent years trying to manage it, soften it, or sideline it. That hasn’t worked, and it’s not going to.
Take the SAVE America Act as a perfect example. Requiring proof of citizenship to vote should be a political layup. Polling consistently shows broad public support for voter ID, including among independents and even some Democrats. And yet, delay, hesitation, and excuses are the refrain of Senate Majority Leader John Thune and usual RINO (Republican in Name Only) suspects. We hear about the filibuster, about not having the votes, and about not wanting to open the door to amendments.


Let’s be honest: If the Democrats were in the majority, do you think they would hesitate to nuke the filibuster? Not a chance. They change the rules immediately.


Yet, there may be a workaround to Senate Majority Leader Thune’s trepidation.

As explained by From Real Clear Politics:
“Reconciliation allows Congress to pass legislation affecting federal spending and revenues with a simple majority vote. Debate is limited, and the 60-vote threshold does not apply. It is a standard part of the congressional process that both parties have used when priorities demand action.Democrats used reconciliation to finalize key provisions of the Affordable Care Act. Republicans used it to pass the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The precedent is clear and well established.”

Republicans also used budget reconciliation to pass the Big Beautiful bill in 2025.

That’s the kind of thinking voters want to see: less handwringing, more action.

But here’s the reality: despite your frustration with the GOP, you can’t sit out the 2026 Mid-Term Election. Because in the short term, the mission is simple: win. Hold the House. Take the Senate. Build a majority strong enough to actually move an agenda. And yes, that may mean supporting candidates you dislike. That’s politics. It’s not always clean or easy, but it’s how you get results.

The bigger picture matters more.

We’re on the cusp of something major here: a new golden age for America. Trump is not only remaking the political, economic, and national security framework of America, but his policies and decisive actions are doing the same to the geopolitical order that’s been in place since the post-World War 2 era.

So yeah, be frustrated. That’s justified. But don’t lose sight of where this is going.


If the party drags its feet, voters can and should hold them accountable. That’s how this works. But walking away entirely? That just hands the advantage to the other side.

For now, stay focused. Stay engaged. Play the long game like Trump is doing.

You don’t have to love every piece of the machine, but if you want it to move in your direction, you still have to help push it.
All good? Good.
