Did last night send a clear message?

We know Emperor Trump will never learn a thing, but how about the Republican Party? Will they adjust their evil ways to survive?



Of course not!

Two impeachments. Zippo. No oversight. Riveted to conservative policies. If they reversed course voters could not miss the cases of Republican whiplash.

Was last night all about inflation? Tariffs? ICE raids and civil rights? White House demolition?

But really the question is how durable are those issues in voters' minds? Inflation can reverse, it's possible, tariffs can fade as an issue or be reduced. The other damage is irreversible.

Not a misplaced values problem.
They’ll repolish their turds with new messaging and will double down on bad policy.
And just in case, they’ll gerrymander and cheat because even they know they’re unable to win fair elections.
