NEW: President Trump went all-in on an unprecedented mid-decade redistricting push to protect the GOP’s House majority. The blue wave washed right over it.
Now, Republicans are questioning whether the multi-state mission was worth the energy it required.
Leaders of the plan are still defending it. After all, three of the four House seats Republicans will flip were redrawn. And it will likely still help long term.

There’s another loser in the 2026 midterms: the cryptocurrency industry.
