Anyone who thinks this can't happen is forgetting that the Democrats did it to the GOP back in the 80s.
In 1982, the Democrats sued the RNC, upset that Republican Thomas Kean had eked out a narrow victory in the New Jersey gubernatorial election. The RNC employed a Ballot Security Task Force that worked to combat voter fraud in minority (Democratic) areas of the state and Democrats alleged that this was a violation of the Voting Rights Act.
Rather than going to trial, the RNC entered a consent decree that prohibited them from engaging in any activities to combat electoral fraud. The RNC sought to lift the consent decree for decades but were consistently blocked by Judge Dickinson Debevoise, a Jimmy Carter appointee. The courts did eventually agree to add an expiration date to the decree, but the judge still retained the power to indefinitely extend the decree if the Democrats filed suit.
Debevoise continuously refused to lift the consent decree until he died. In *checks notes* 2015. The decree was formally lifted in 2017; the Democrats tried to extend it again, but were smacked down by the courts the next year.
I don't think it's a coincidence that Democrats everywhere began loosening restrictions on mail-in voting and the like starting in 2018. With the consent decree gone, the RNC was no longer restricted in curbing Democrat electoral fraud, so the Democrats decided to change the rules of the game to keep themselves in power.
Remember that the original consent decree happened because of a STATE election. If the Democrats are found to have violated federal law by stealing the elections from Spencer Pratt and Steve Hilton, the Trump administration can very easily Uno reverse card them, and given that they've admitted ongoing voter fraud investigations in California, it's likely they will.

Sample Ballot for the 2026 Alaska Governor Primary on August 18th, 2026. Pick one, jungle primary.
All candidates regardless of political party run in the same primary.
The Top 4 vote getters move on to the Top 4 General Ranked Choice Voting Election in November.
This ballot is complicated and stupid, anyone that feels otherwise is also stupid.
I removed Nancy Dahlstrom already, since she dropped out today.
The City of Dallas, Texas held a pride flag raising ceremony to fly an lgbtq flag at City Hall.
Your tax dollars hard at work!
Dallas has been conquered by the child mutiIation gender cult.
I want to comment on John Cornyn losing his primary because I go to DC parties where I meet establishment guys and I know how they think.
Senate Republicans think they are the reason Republicans won in 2024. They think they’re the GOP’s secret sauce.
You think the GOP rode Trump’s coattails. They think Trump road their coattails.
In this world, Republicans won because Democrats went too far. Woke was too crazy. Republicans were moderate and sensible. Now, they have to keep the party that way or Republicans will make the same mistake the Democrats made.
They think in very outdated terms. Republicans will lose in 2026 because the incumbent party always loses. This is a political “rule”. They are 100% certain Republicans will lose. Therefore, anything Trump does to try to win the midterms is actually cope. You’re talking crazy. Crazy is bad.
SAVE? Deportations? That’s crazy. Crazy is bad.
“But if you redistrict and pass voter ID Republicans will win!”
Senate Republicans are not thinking like that. They’re thinking you’re nuts.
Passing bills, making law? They think that whatever mandate they had was squandered by Trump over controversies like Minneapolis and posting too many memes on Twitter. The GOP looks too crazy now. Well try again next time.
They’re actually doing us a favor. By doing nothing they’re protecting us from our own excesses. They’re helping us not look crazy. We had better thank them.
When you think of MAGA, you think of Donald Trump and reindustrialization and deporting illegal immigrants.
When they think of MAGA, they think of Marjorie Taylor Greene. They think of Roy Moore losing Alabama in 2018. They think of “grab them by the pussy”. They think of “they’re eating the dogs”. They think of Lauren Boebert and Matt Gaetz and Alex Jones. They think of crazy people doing stupid things.
So, in every election since 2016, and maybe even before that, it’s Establishment Republicans who have saved the ticket from the worst excesses of Donald Trump and the Republican base.
That is what Senate Republicans mean when they say they want to “govern”. They want to pass budgets and workshop foreign policy.
That is why they still won’t implement Trump’s agenda. They think it is deeply unpopular, or will become unpopular even if it temporarily polls well. They think Trump only won because they saved his bacon.
So, John Cornyn.
John Cornyn lost because the base is deeply unhappy with Senate Republican leadership. Republican voters would probably replace a majority of Senate Republicans if you simply took a straw poll.
Senate Republicans know this, but think that Republicans voters almost always “come to their senses” because we all know Republicans can’t afford to be crazy. Democrats lose when they’re crazy. Republicans will lose the same way.
Sometimes the base has to be coerced or told what to do. That’s why they have to spend $100M propping up Cornyn.
Cornyn’s loss is shocking to them because it doesn’t make sense:
* Trump has “no reason” for endorsing Paxton over Cornyn. It’s crazy for Trump to do this. Senate Republicans save Trump again and again and this is how he repays them.
* The voters are out of control. The base is “supposed to” vote for Republicans anyways, so they should know we have to support moderates who can win. The fact that the voters don’t know this is more proof that Senate Republicans are the smartest people in the room.
Paxton won’t become AG
Paxton won’t be reelected
Paxton won’t survive primary by the Bush dynasty
Paxton won’t be reelected again
Paxton won’t survive impeachment
Paxton won’t run for Senate
Paxton won’t beat Cornyn

Alaska was tip of the spear in stopping the spread of Ranked Choice Voting.
If it wasn't for all the wonderful Alaskans willing to stand and fight against Ranked Choice Voting. It may have spread to the lower 48.
Now we have 19 states that have banned it and 7 more considering bans. That would be 26 States, faster pace than legalization of cannabis.
