They have every reason to worry. They are being led by a criminal.

And like criminals, Chumpy and the rest of them will go down like criminals! WE WILL MAKE SURE OF THAT! Chumpy is already in hot water over that mass deportation of Venezuelans.

The Republicans should worry because the tide is going to change and soon! Evil never wins, it gives tough moments, but loses in the shuffle.

Amen! And even if evil wins battles, it seldom wins the war. Even if evil is unpunished in this life, it always is in the hereafter!

We need to win BIG in these special elections. We have to show Trump he did not have a mandate, and he can't cut the citizens out. Money helps in a campaign, but votes are what gets the job done. Get out the vote, and keep talking it up. Find someone who needs a ride and take them with you.

I'm happy to see all of these Democratic Party town halls in deep red areas, where they can reach GOP voters and even educate them. We need to reach out to each other because what Chumpy and Musky want to do will hurt everyone who isn't a 1 Percenter.

I agree! More meetings are needed in red states! Voters need to canvas door to door now to get out the vote for 2026.

Good to see the Democrats coming on strong.

I wish money didn’t buy elections. I wish people favored balance and didn’t blindly trust one side over another. Ideas are fine. But if they’re not rooted in a higher purpose with fairness and integrity, a moral compass of sorts, the idealism becomes a weapon against everyone with a differing point of view, or a religious belief. And so is, corrupt.

End citizens United!! That will help!

Exactly. If this evil U.S. Supreme Court hadn't passed Citizens United, corporations would not have been given the status of "person". I was happy when Justice Scalia finally died. He's the Justice who pushed hard to get it passed. I hope he's happy with his work in hell.

Oh please, time to feel an earthquake! Certainly will energize all the spirited people in the crowds around ALL the States, even here in Boise, Idaho. State republican legislators and Senators Risch and Crapo… Representative Simpson and Fulcher…OMG! HELP, we are in the streets! 🔥☄️🔥

I don’t want to make Republicans concerned about this or any other election. I want them to continue to believe that they are invincible—at least until they lose big time. Now THAT I want to be able to experience and enjoy.

So far, it’s just money. Show me the votes! If the shrink the margin by a significant amount, wake me up!

I don't know if winning is a serious option. These are districts that are traditionally red and go big for Trump. In the year before previous incumbent party midterm defeats, the margin that the incumbent party won by even in strongholds, dropped significantly. If you are looking for a 2026 barometer, that could be it.---Jason

Right now, districts like this are probably still pro-Trump. He hasn’t killed their Medicare, Medicaid or Social Security - yet! He has brutally deported people they probably hate. He has attacked academics and lawyers and judges. I’ll bet districts like that love it. Until they become the targets. We aren’t there - yet!

I lived in districts that didn’t support the likes of Trump by 30 points, and I know the mindset. It’s fascism light. Call me an elitist, but I don’t think any reasonable Democrat stands a chance. It’s a different culture and country. Might as well be Afghanistan! Sorry, it’s the truth.

Even if many Florida districts aren't won, it's still not too late. There are midterms!

No offence meant. However, when you read that the, possible, outcome of an election depends upon the amount of millions of $s raised, especially, when you think of Musk, et al, I almost get close to despair. Of course, even here (UK) money talks. But the actual levels of cash, in US elections is abhorrent, ridiculous, and almost amounts to "Monopoly" money level corruption. I'm not naive,merely astounded.

Hopefully the people of Florida are starting to see the actual light on the person they voted for in November. Remember a lot of residents are retired and many depend on their social security as not all are able to sustain their existence on their savings and pensions alone. Maybe the sun hasn't baked the majority of brains in the land of sunshine.

And if any Democrat loses any race, they better stand up in fight for and demand hand count immediately.

Yes, every vote should be recounted by hand. I don’t trust Musk not to help trump with starlink.

this is a heavily gerrymandered district for the republicans so it's great to see the dems making inroads. donate to josh and maybe we can pull off a HUGE victory!!

Expand full comment

I’ll pray every day that the Dems take both elections in FL. If the state of this country now isn’t enough to bring its citizens to their senses, even if it’s just to be concerned of their own self interest, I don’t know what ever will.
