Republicans felt the wrath tonight of voters rejecting Trump's agenda.
The biggest issue for voters was the economy, with half listing it as their number one focus. Almost a year into his second term Trump has failed to deliver on the economy as
food and energy prices continue to rise and
60% of voters disapprove of his handling. Republicans have lost their gains with Latino voters. In New Jersey,
64% went for Sherrill citing the economy and his handling of immigration has their largest concerns. Trump almost won New Jersey in last year's election largely due to the swing of Latino voters to the GOP. Gen Z voters also did a 180 and
overwhelmingly backed the Democratic candidates after backing Trump last year. Overall,
only 37% of voters approve of the job he is doing.
These numbers are abysmal and it's the only way a man like Jay Jones can get elected to the top law enforcement office in the state, despite his sociopathic comments about his opponents' children being publicly leaked. It's not just "blue state" statewide offices either. Down ballot,
Republicans have lost 11 seats in the Virginia House Delegates, taking the Democrats' 51-49 majority to 62-38. In Georgia,
Democrats defeated Republican incumbents in statewide races for Public Service Commissioner. In Pennsylvania, they are sweeping judicial races across the board.
MAGA appears to be repeating the same errors of the 2018 midterm election cycle, denying that Trump is an albatross around their necks by not delivering what the people want. They went on to lose 41 House seats that year.
Dem's threw everything and the kitchen sink at Trump, even tried to get him assassinated twice, tried to lock him up in prison, and team MAGA still stomped the Democrats guts out last November.
