I’ve been saying the same thing. I think he is over the target.

[Will Chamberlain @willchamberlain]

People forget what 2018 and 2020 were like. Bad GOP years.

In 2018 we were in the depths of Russiagate and the investigations into the President. Democrats were completely unified in their effort to stop Trump. Republicans were still massively divided. Women's marches were everywhere. Protests in DC nonstop. Democrats were activated, mobilized, and Trump was completely hamstrung.

We came in with 53 Senate seats and held on to 51. We flipped Florida - Rick Scott defeated an incumbent Bill Nelson, and DeSantis won. We flipped Missouri and Indiana, too.

In 2020 we were in the depths of COVID and peak BLM hysteria. Democrats were again incredibly activated. Mass protests everywhere. Polls were projecting a complete wipeout, and the President losing to Biden by 10+. Trump only lost the popular vote by about 4.5 points. Dems just barely held the Senate, getting only to 50 seats.

What, exactly, is happening in 2026 that is driving the GOP to the worst performance since Watergate? Gas being $4.00 a gallon instead of $3.00 a gallon?

I mean yeah, it's a midterm and inflation is too high. Ok. Democrats have problems EVERYWHERE, unlike anything they had in previous years. They had a rapist with the Nazi tattoo win the primary in Maine, and were forced to replace him at the last minute with the guy who came in 4th in their gubernatorial primary. Their candidate in Michigan is so repellent that his primary opponent - who got 47% of the primary vote - has endorsed the Republican. Their candidate in Alaska is likely going to face criminal charges for conspiring to defraud Alaskans of the right to vote for the candidate of their choice. Democrats everywhere are bickering and fighting. And where are the Iran War protests? Oh right they aren't happening. The "No Kings" protests are anemic.

Meanwhile, Republicans have never been more institutionally behind President Trump. He's still doing rallies everywhere and pulling big audiences.

That's going to lead to a D+13 environment - something we haven't seen since Watergate?

Sorry I just don't believe you. It's 2026, normal people have been ignoring polls for a decade now and aren't picking up the phone for Nate Cohn.

D+4, and Susan Collins and Mike Rogers defy the tide and win too because the Democrat candidates are historically bad.

[Mark Meuser @MarkMeuser]

Agree. If you are a citizen of this country, you have a duty to vote. Don’t look at the polls or the media to determine who you should vote for. Take 30 minutes, study the candidates and go vote.

[Seth Keshel @RealSKeshel]

I’ll explain for everyone why we have polls like this.

It’s because polling drives the political news cycles. Tomorrow is Monday, when people are getting ready to talk about going to the polls for Election Day.

If they can dissuade a small percentage of people from wanting to vote, they can tip races. There will be no apologies for it being closer than they said.

Miller-Meeks won in Iowa by 6 votes out of 400,000 cast in 2020. Six.

The entire goal of this psyop is to discourage you. Ann Selzer carried this water and then retired, MISSING by SIXTEEN points in Iowa.

This stuff makes me sick and it is absolutely election interference that should be handled accordingly.

[Mark Meuser @MarkMeuser]

Never heard it put this way.

[Ernest Bledsoe @PincheOgro1]

So, basically, 500 million Europeans expect 300 million Americans to protect them from 120 million Russians who can’t even defeat 40 million Ukrainians while those 500 million Europeans don’t even realize they are being conquered by 2 billion Muslims who claim they are being persecuted by 8 million Israelis. Is that about right?

I didn’t realize businesses were still enforcing their own masking rules. Can someone explain why a business requiring customers to wear masks has to shut down?

Have liberals in Massachusetts grown tired of wearing masks six years after COVID???

[Mark Meuser @MarkMeuser]

I'm sorry, I am confused. I thought Christians were supposed to pray for their leaders. Why is Catholic leader ashamed that he fulfilled his God given duties to pray for this nation's leaders?

If Congresswoman Omar is removed for not being a citizen, it will be Exhibit 1 against the argument that a checkbox attesting citizenship effectively stops non-citizens from voting.

A non-citizen not only voting but being elected to office and casting thousands of votes on how this nation is governed seems to destroy the argument that states effectively ensure only citizens cast ballots in U.S. elections.

[Mark Meuser @MarkMeuser]

People voting for others does happen. I personally heard over 250 such complaints from voters who were not allowed to vote during the 2020 presidential elections.

It seems weird that some fight so hard against common-sense protections to ensure no one steals your vote by pretending to be you.

[Mark Meuser @MarkMeuser]

The last time I checked, the American dream was not about how much one can receive in government subsidies.

America grows stronger as Americans learn to become producers. America becomes weaker when we become a nation of takers.

[U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement @ICEgov]

61% of illegal alien households use at least one major welfare program.

[Mark Meuser @MarkMeuser]

This should be a wake-up call to everyone. When the government starts going after its biggest producers, it will not remain a government by the people, for the people for much longer.

I've followed politics for forty years and concluded America's favorite pastime is lying to pollsters so they have egg on their faces on Election Day.

If you want pollsters with egg on their faces on Election Night, vote—it's the only poll that matters.

[Mark Meuser @MarkMeuser]

@BasedMikeLee Hopefully I’ll be drafting an amicus brief on that exact topic.

Has gas gotten so expensive that one gallon is fair consideration for creating a viral social media video?

Too bad Gavin Newsom has declared war on California refineries, forcing them to leave the state and driving gas prices through the roof.

[Spencer Pratt @spencerpratt]

Steve Hilton said he’d buy me a gallon of gas if I produced a viral ad for his campaign. California dems have voted the same way for years and all our friends are fleeing the state.

It’s time to vote different. It's OK to vote different.

Just try it!

[Mark Meuser @MarkMeuser]

But I thought I was told there was no illegal voting. For years, I've been told the citizenship checkbox on the voter application was enough to ensure non-citizens don't vote.

Are you saying my California Democratic elected leaders have been lying to me?

[Eytan Wallace @EytanWallace]

The U.S. Dept. of Justice and Trump Admin announced charges this morning against 28 green-card holders in California (11 of them were arrested this morning) accused of fraudulently registering to vote, with many casting illegal ballots. All 28 are lawful permanent residents, not U.S. citizens.

“Today’s arrests are part of ‘Operation Protect the Vote’ – a coordinated effort among all four California-based United States Attorney’s Offices to combat and root out fraud in U.S. elections and protect electoral integrity,” per the U.S. DOJ.

Is Pennsylvania going to flip red this year?

[Cliff Maloney @Maloney]

🚨 PA MAIL RETURNS TODAY vs 2022 (UPDATE)

GOP: 219% (up) ⬆️
Dem: 89% (down) ⬇️

Republicans are more than doubling last midterm’s returns at this point. Democrats are lagging their own 2022 pace.

This is the ground game showing up.

This is what happens when you chase ballots instead of hoping people vote on Election Day.

But the job isn’t done.
Every unreturned ballot still on a table is a vote we haven’t banked.

If you have a ballot at home I’M BEGGING YOU, return it now.

Must be received by 8 p.m. November 3.

Keep the pressure on. Do the work. Doors win wars. 🚪🏃‍♂️

Shots fired, pollsters. Expect a major update from me this week.

[Mark Meuser @MarkMeuser]

Did you know that in 1849, Senator James Shield was unseated because the Senate determined that he was not a citizen of the United States.

Any guesses what party James Shield represented?

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 NOW: Federal prosecutors are HONING IN on documents from Somali Rep. Ilhan Omar's FATHER in the case to denaturalize and deport her

DOJ only has to prove that Omar obtained citizenship under FALSE information — whether the lying was intentional or NOT — and that disqualifies her from Congress, from being a citizen, and means she has to LEAVE 👋🏻

She also could've had the wrong age, marking herself as a minor to piggy-back off her father, despite being 18

This case has been building for WEEKS AND MONTHS and AG Blanche is not leaving any stone unturned!

Agents seized her phone in Monday's search, and more than a dozen grand jury subpoenas have gone out in Minnesota, including to her family

If the father's paperwork falls apart, so does hers. Deportation is on the horizon!

[Mark Meuser @MarkMeuser]

At the end of the day, the only poll that matters is the one taken by those who vote by Election Day.

Sadly, many people believe polls that predict their candidate will lose and decide not to vote. In many races with razor-thin margins, these polls do more damage than good. Those who refuse to vote because their candidate will lose are part of the problem.

If you are a U.S. citizen, make sure you vote in the only poll that matters: the ballot box.

This decision is a no-brainer. Any first-year law student knows that what California did would never be upheld by the federal courts.

[SCOTUS Wire @scotus_wire]

BREAKING: The Ninth Circuit ruled that California cannot require federal immigration agents and other federal officers to display identification during enforcement operations, finding the law violates the Constitution's Supremacy Clause.

After running 26.2 miles and finishing the Chicago marathon, my running shoes went to the skydeck and had her picture taken with the medal. My shoes refused to have her picture taken with me because she was mad at me for my lack of fitness.

A marathon may be hard to run but I am sure it would be much easier if one actually seriously trained to run one.
