Read the essay.
New Substack: I asked a long time friend/lifelong Democrat whose academic achievements, insights and views I have always welcomed, for his views on the midterms. His thoughts were, as expected, cogent and without bias and the best commentary I have seen. mjosephsheppard.substack.com…

You didn't like the war and slightly raised costs, so you voted to obliterate your own economy and hand the AI race over to China. Makes sense.

Texas turned blue because of the war, gas prices, the rising cost of living, and immigration. By contrast, California has some of the highest gas prices, one of the highest costs of living, uncontrolled immigration and when Obama went to war in Syria, it never turned red. This kind of disparity in voter behavior will doom America.

People actually believed it was because of the Iran conflict lol
There's your deliberate market manipulation to keep gas prices high before the midterms: was $103 last week

This is the absolute truth. Like it or not. Be careful who you listen to. Be even more careful who you take seriously.
Many X "pundits" are young with little life/political experience & post to make their audience feel good while monetizing with no need for balance. People can click on whom they wish but they'll not get any real information.

I will comment, straightforwardly, on the midterms results as they happen-it may be that some will not like some of them, but there will be plenty of lily gilding sites so you can switch back and forth.

No doubt it came from the top. Just as Clyburn made the statement yesterday the El-Sayad could not dictate that Haley Stevens could not attend the Black church event. Pelosi made the phone call

It's almost like the 'New York Times' is biased against Republicans. Does that sound like too much of a conspiracy theory to you?
Minnesota Senate: NY Times Sienna for your delectation.

I think Marco Rubio would make a great president. He'd do way better than JD Vance.

Most “polls” are trash. Throw them in the dumpster. Never look back.
There you go "Pollsters" make $ betting on their fake polls which the MSM "aggregators" use to dispirit Trump voters. NB: @realDonaldTrump

Honestly, this is pretty brilliant from Trump and his team. No more shots necessary
7 million barrels of oil +LNG passed through the Straits today and 18 ships. US has complete control of the Strait's and blockaded Iran whose economy has about 3 months before near collapse. Meanwhile no shooting war/US casualties-Trump can wait them out.
