PJM: Donald Trump has never been one to shy away from a fight, but this time, he’s done more than just rattle the Democrats—he’s practically handed Republicans the keys to a midterm landslide in 2026. The playbook was simple, the execution flawless, and the results devastating for the opposition.
Here’s what happened.
When Zohran Mamdani, the antisemitic socialist, won the Democratic primary for mayor of New York City, many Democrats were less than thrilled. Last month, the Associated Press reported that his victory “exposed anew the fiery divisions plaguing the Democratic Party as it struggles to repair its brand nearly half a year into Donald Trump’s presidency.”
Many progressives cheered the emergence of the young and charismatic Mamdani, whose candidacy caught on with viral campaign videos and a focus on the cost of living. But the party’s more pragmatic wing cast the outcome as a serious setback in their quest to broaden Democrats’ appeal and move past the more controversial policies that alienated would-be voters in recent elections.
For many Democrats who understand they have to toe a more mainstream line, Mamdani’s views were too radioactive, his presence too much of a risk for a party already struggling to hold together its fragile coalition. The last thing Democratic leadership wanted was to be seen defending someone so far outside the mainstream.
And Trump saw an opening and took it.

Until we take back our schools from the communists, abandon all hope.
Trump is again playing 4-D chess except now he is also taking the checkers away from the Leftists.
POGO, I SAY LET THEM KEEP AND BE ENTERTAINED WITH THEIR CHECKERS
THEY ARE LOST, EVERY DAY GETS BETTER

Absolutely. If we don’t get the communists out of the education system, all is lost.
I also don’t think Trump had to do anything. The democrat leadership is so far out in left field, they would have endorsed Mamdani anyway.
The Democrat pole guard is going to axe this Mamdani idiot and that is going to be pretext to light they/them’s fuse and Antifa is going to do what progressive/Marxist/Satanists do and lash out with violence and the bastard Democrats have painted themselves into a corner. It’s going to get nasty, none of them have ever had to take responsibility for anything and none of them will. They have all profited from the politics of the temper tantrum and that is all they know.
Arrests, convictions, and punishments would go a long way too.
If Musk succeeds in creating a “third party” there will be no GOP landslide in the future…and NO wins for the GOP. We will get what we got in 1992 when Ross Perot’s “third party” effort split the conservative vote keeping Bush Sr. from winning and giving us Slick Willie the Arkansas Rapist. The same will happen again. The lefts voter base is dedicated and consistently reliable. The conservative voter base is fractured and unreliable. ANY effort to “split” the votes will ONLY work FOR the communist left.
get the commies out of the [government] education system? Good luck with that!
How about: Get your children out of the government school systems.
Nice to see the trolls are out, spreading FUD, as always.
PS If Elon really wants a 3rd party, it’s going to take some doing. Trump is on a roll right now and a few doctrinaire Rightists who can’t wait to see America ground under the Leftist boot so they can spend eternity whining about it won’t be enough to derail it.
These are the people who vote Libertarian or something else, anyway.
AP – “…struggles to repair its brand nearly half a year into Donald Trump’s presidency.”
JUST half a year and they are still reeling like November 6th.
Being as it’s AP doubt it was planned, that’s one critical burn there.
Buy stock in aloe.
There is the Joker that will be playing in this next round of cards. If Musk starts a third party it will fracture the Republican while pulling a minimal amount away from the Dems. It will be like Peroit 2.0
Trump is the only male politician at the federal level who is capable of obtaining, maintaining or using an erection. The others have the ‘Swedish penis pump’ and a choker to keep it together for a bit but Trump, he got the natural ability and he use it. Makes the others look like cartoons. Especially Hakim Jefferies and (most unfortunately) Rand Paul, what a disappointment he has become.
