We started calling it a "hope drawer," because that's what you're really looking for when you open it: hope that something in there will solve whatever issue you're up against.

We had three designated "junk drawers" and we are from Jersey

If you were a Republican president wanting to lose seats in the midterm elections, what would you do differently?

This clip will be used by every Democrat candidate from here to November. 🤦‍♂️

When asked if he is concerned about the latest inflation numbers that came out this morning, President Trump responded, “No, I love it. The numbers were great. You know what I really love? I love the inflation.”

“You know why? Because as soon as this war is over — you know, I can say it now,” Trump said. “So you know we've been taking out millions of barrels of oil? Nobody knows it. You know who doesn't know about it? Iran until right now.”

Inflation topped 4% in May as the Consumer Price Index surged to its highest level in more than three years.

The cancer effecting both sides of the aisle has never been more on display than in the #MESen race.

The party would rather back a truly terrible person with their party label than simply walk away from the race.

Party over principles at all cost.

Republicans are going to get absolutely shellacked in the midterms and anyone suggesting otherwise is going to make it so much worse than it already will be.

Run unopposed or run scared. Those are the only two options.

This is not a hot take. Live Sports are no longer available to the middle class, w/ many ticket prices exceeding the cost of going to Disney World.

Sporting events are now the luxury of business clients & the wealthy class.

The fact is @jamestalarico will absolutely lose the #TXSen race. The problem is, the @NRSC will be spending hundreds of millions to accomplish that.

Cornyn would win in a walk. But now, this is a dog fight. The GOP is likely losing the Senate because of this race.

🚨BREAKING: #Rams star Jared Verse is under CRITICISM for his reaction to gay reporter Ruba Wilson’s voice.

LGBTQIA+ activists on social media believe that Verse laughing was completely uncalled for & that he was not sensitive towards Ruba’s feelings.

😳

Not surprising given an unpopular war, precipitated by a commander in chief who acknowledges no limitations in his war powers, leading to excessively high gas prices.

[Tom Bevan @TomBevanRCP]

Trump's disapproval rating today (58.3%) is higher than its highest point in his first term (57.9%), which occurred after January 6, 2021.

[Jacob Thomas @OhioJT]

This is a joke, right?

Pratt will lose purely because of demographics. No GOP will ever be mayor of LA for the same reason. The whole "Stop the Steal" crap makes conservatives look crazy.

[Lara Logan @laralogan]

How are you going to stop them stealing the election from you? The entire nation can see you have already won the streets.

[Jacob Thomas @OhioJT]

The GOP just lost the Senate majority.

Trump endorsing Paxton means the NRSC will be pumping hundreds of millions into a race that Cornyn would have won in a walk.

That's millions that won't be going to Ohio, Georgia, North Carolina, Maine & Alaska.

[Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson]

VP JD Vance responds to President Trump’s endorsement of Ken Paxton over John Cornyn:

"When it really counted, Ken Paxton was there for the country... You have got to serve the people that sent you and if you don’t do that, you’re gonna find yourself out of step with the voters or out of step with the President of the United States"

[Jacob Thomas @OhioJT]

If you're looking at 2026 as a year of GOP triumph, while the middle class is still struggling with a high cost of living & a near impossible housing market, you're whistling past the graveyard.

Sure, some is Biden leftovers, but good luck explaining that to the average voter.

[Clay Travis @ClayTravis]

All time record low crime, record high stock market, low unemployment, if gas prices return to normal by the midterms, which I believe they will, what will Democrats run on in 2026? Will it be Trump is Hitler again? If so, does anyone believe that will work? Dems have no message.

[Jacob Thomas @OhioJT]

If Democrats cared this much when their now-elected AG wanted to put "two bullets" in a Republican, perhaps their criticisms would carry greater weight.

"To solve our crisis of democracy we must gut what remains of democracy" is a pretty on point summation of the arguments in DC right now.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

New in PN: This is a crisis of democracy. What will Dems do about it?

"Perhaps you’re uncomfortable with one or more of these proposals. That’s fine. At this point, the details are less important than preparing for a new approach to politics, procedures, and governing." https://t.co/oXxFd5TK64

I have discovered that the quality of customer service at @Costco is inversely proportional to the kindness and courtesy of the vast majority of those who shop there.

And the customer service in Plain City is some of the best I've ever seen.

It would take wealth on the scale of @elonmusk to fund the effort to pass this as a constitutional amendment. Because no one in Congress would ever vote for it.

We can have legitimate disagreement over religious practice, but when a religious leader says a political leader understands religious doctrine better than the head of one of the largest religious groups in the world, we've lost your way.

Sadly, too many #ProLife groups place a higher priority on winning than they do on actual Pro-Life values.

When it comes to politics, there's too much money and power at stake to let a little thing like integrity get in the way.

[Mike Fragoso @mike_frags]

The national pro-life movement is upset with Trump and the GOP. They have understandable concerns about Trump HHS but the broader concern misapprehends the political landscape. The reason federal R are reticent on abortion is because they’re pro-life but anti-losing. 1/9

[Jacob Thomas @OhioJT]

Extremely light attendance at a heavy Republican polling location.

Not a lot of enthusiasm for the top of the ticket. Going to be a lot of under votes. #OHgov

You can't hoard $10 trillion for yourself without taking it away from everyone else. He's telling the world he plans to impoverish us all. Real supervillain shit.

[Jacob Thomas @OhioJT]

This is exactly what's wrong with our politics.

Rather than support a Republican that aligns more with the political center, Democrats are willing to throw in with a literal Nazi sympathizer because party always comes first. #MESen
