NEW 🚨: El Salvador’s President Just Issued a Challenge to Trump—“You Have 350 Million People to Liberate.”

This wasn’t a photo op. It was a mission briefing.

At the White House, El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele looked President Trump dead in the eye and said:

“You have 350 million people to liberate.”

Bukele isn’t just talking tough—he has the results to prove that it can be done.

“We turned the murder capital of the world—that’s what the journalists called it—into the safest country in the western hemisphere,” he said.

Critics complain about mass arrests.

Bukele fired back:

“Sometimes they say we imprisoned thousands. I like to say we liberated millions.”

Trump grinned: “That’s very good! Who gave him that line? Do you think I can use that?”

Then Bukele hit the heart of the problem:

“To liberate 350 million people, you have to imprison some. That’s the way it works, right? You can’t just free the criminals and think crime’s going to go down magically. You have to imprison them—so you can liberate 350 million Americans asking for the end of crime and the end of terrorism.”

No fluff. No fantasy. Just facts.

This is what happens when real leaders speak truth.

America is finally ready to listen.

🚨 WTF?! President Trump just revealed his OWN ADVISERS told him to "STOP TALKING ABOUT THE BORDER" because "NOBODY'S INTERESTED"

These people need to be FIRED. Immigration was the SOLE ISSUE Republicans won BY FAR in the election, per exit polls

"I probably got elected on the border. I can't even talk about it now because people say 'nobody's interested because you fixed it.'"

"My OWN people. They say nobody is interested in the border!"

This is maybe the most thorough and honest diagnosis of an election defeat that we’ve ever seen from a politician at Vance’s level. And he’s right.

[JD Vance @JDVance]

One of the things the data analysts on our side obsessed over was "composition"—whether the electorate looked close enough to 2024 for Republicans to win. And despite polls that showed a Democrat blowout, the data kept on telling us the same story: in some states turnout was merely OK, in other states it was downright amazing, and in no state was it catastrophic. There was a genuine sense of optimism on our team: our people were showing up.

So, I asked the smartest data guy I know, does that mean we're going to shock the world? "No," he told me. "We might do better than the polls suggest. But the data is telling us that a lot of Trump/Vance 2024 voters are pissed and planning to vote for the other guys. Our voters are turning out, but they may not vote for us."

Well, that looks prophetic now. Our voters did show up. In Florida, for example, the electorate was 9 points more Republican than Democrat, just a couple points worse than 2024. Undoubtedly there were places we could have done better on turnout. But the main problem is not turnout. The main problem is that many people who voted for Trump/Vance in 2024 voted for Democrats in 2026.

There will be a lot of infighting and arguing over what happened and why that is. One of the pollsters I really respect told me that our economic messaging wasn’t sharp enough down the stretch. I’m sure that’s true.

But the real reason we lost is obvious to almost everyone.

Another pollster—one of the smartest people I know in politics, told me yesterday we’d lose the generic ballot by 13 points. I felt negative going into Tuesday, but even I was shocked by this. In his polling, he saw that a lot of Trump 2024 voters were angry and planning to vote for Democrats. He asked those voters who had abandoned us what would cause them to come back on our team. The top four answers, accounting for nearly all of the responses were:

1) End the war
2) Focus on cost of living/inflation
3) Put America First
4) Change our relationship to Israel

Our voters showed up. And the above four reasons are why many of them voted for Democrats. This is according to a pollster who nailed the results. While many spent Monday attacking Rachel Campos Duffy for calling for a diplomatic resolution to the conflict, it turns out her political advice was sound. (She’s also a great person.)

In the next few months, there's going to be a lot of gaslighting. Expect to hear any number of establishment politicians say the solution to our woes is amnesty. I'm open to the idea that we should change enforcement—by focusing more on businesses that hire illegal labor, for instance. But anyone pushing amnesty is lying to you.

The reason we lost is the war. The president himself said so last night.

If you'd like to argue it was worth it, that losing the Senate for the next 6 years was worth it, then do so. Argue it was a worthwhile cost to pay. Agree or disagree, that's at least honest.

But everyone knows why we lost. And any honest conversation about where we go from here must start there.

I remain hopeful about our country. To the people who are pissed off and want to say, “I told you so”: you’re right, you did tell us so. Take that energy into electing Republicans who share your worldview. To the people who are just pissed at the results, you should be. Let’s take that anger and get back to the work of saving our country.

oh NOWWWWWWW he remembers white men and their jobs exist..

where was that when he was flooding texas with indians?

someone roll this mf off a cliff.

[Gregory K Bovino @GregoryKBovino]

The signs at the convention said MASS DEPORTATIONS.

Not “net negative.”
Not “targeted.”
Not “worst of the worst.”
That’s what people were holding up. That’s what they voted for.

Nick’s right. Once you start calling “we slowed the number of new people” a win, you already moved the goalposts. The people who showed up were told the ones already here would get removed at scale. They weren’t told “we’ll manage the flow better and call it a day.”

This was the last realistic shot. If Texas is now permanently harder for Republicans, how exactly does a Republican win the presidency again?

[James Fishback @jamesfishback]

RIP MAGA.

2016-2026. 10 years young.

Now it's either America First or the Republicans will never hold power again.
