A Republican Wipeout for the Ages

Dan Pfeiffer: “It was ten years in the making, but Donald Trump finally got the electoral ass-kicking that he deserved. Voters of all stripes from every region of the country rejected the President, his agenda, and his party.”

“2026 was not a normal midterm. It was bigger than 2018, 2010, 2006, and 1994. Democrats are on track to win the largest popular vote margin since 1974 — the first midterm after Watergate (which is fitting on many levels).”

“Democrats took the House and flipped the Senate. Republicans lost everywhere. Democrats flipped states that Trump won by more than 15 points and won districts that were never supposed to be competitive. We elected a Black woman governor of Georgia, a Latina in Texas. Democrats swept the statewide offices in Georgia and Texas and now have governing trifectas in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan.”
