Used to talk about politics, now mostly economics with some sprinkles of nonsense on top.

I believe that ancient high cultures mostly perished because things got so good for them at some point that people came up with foolish ideas.

We are now actually getting to witness such an insidious decline live.

Dems will get 55 Senate seats and 250+ House seats. Looking at the Senate map and considering such a massive House margin, it is very unlikely Republicans will recapture the Congress in 2028. Might not have a shot at Senate control until 2032.

[Thomas Schuster @TSchuster23]

Everything reacts instantly now: elections, markets, headlines.

Markets are forward looking and move on fast!

The counter move when the world speeds up is to slow down, think it through, control what you can control, and don't trade tomorrow away for today.

Different kind of politician he has feel for the current Zeitgeist and sees ahead.

[Florida Dad @FLDadReborn]

Florida has a Republican cabinet tonight by a razor thin margin. They only survived because Ron DeSantis shifted the electorate so thoroughly through his leadership during COVID.

You can’t appreciate him enough.

2028 should not be a tough decision for the GOP.

[Thomas Schuster @TSchuster23]

He understood the sentiment before anyone else the ,,AI race with China" framing: US firms are selling into China, not racing it Oracle building capacity in Asia, Nvidia wanting to ship chips.
DeSantis warned the GOP is losing the data center argument on local costs and jobs.

[Thomas Schuster @TSchuster23]

Again this is a horrible
sales pitch for AI

“I don’t want to be just sitting there for two years vetoing everything.”

President Donald Trump picked up a call from @DashaBurns on POLITICO Elections Live and talked to us about the blue wave and how he’s willing to work with incoming congressional Democrats.

[Chris Nelson 🏝️🇺🇸 @ReOpenChris]

Governor DeSantis LIGHTS UP Republicans for breaking all their promises.

“Republicans are already talking about after the election, raising the debt ceiling by $5 TRILLION or whatever and I'm just thinking of myself, These guys all run for office saying they're gonna spend less and have less debt. And then the thing they want to do right after the election is ADD ANOTHER $5 TRILLION?

That don't work!”

Barring something unexpected, Amendment 3 will pass!

[Thomas Schuster @TSchuster23]

Ron DeSantis does not get nearly enough credit for what he’s done in Florida.

One of the most successful tenures of any governor in recent history, turning Florida into a solid red state and showing that Fauci & Newsom were incompetent during COVID

[DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican]

The FL numbers are absolutely bonkers. Presidential margins in a midterm, and any Democratic advantage keeps closing with every update.

If this applies to all states, we may well see a last minute turnaround - the next iron test will be Nevada.

As a white guy, nothing has disappointed me more than generations of pathetic, submissive, feminine, white guys enabling the death of the civilization their ancestors built.

Sorry, just had to get that off my chest.

@alwayslearni It’s a buying opportunity after a pause, timing is everything.
