Rick Wilson argues that Donald Trump’s political tricks are no longer working because his approval ratings and economic credibility have collapsed, so stunts like renaming Lake Ontario “Lake America” now draw ridicule instead of fear. He says Trump’s tariffs, corruption, and cuts to programs like SNAP, Medicaid, and USAID are hurting the very red-state farmers, ranchers, and working people who once supported him, while also damaging America’s reputation abroad. Wilson warns that Trump is shifting campaign money toward ads that tie Republicans to his legacy, which could hurt swing-seat candidates, and he emphasizes that Trump remains dangerous even as his influence appears to be fading.

You know what? Im sick of American politics all together,its nothing but democrats vs republicans,divided Americans who only care about thier own selfish needs,makes no difference who is president he or she will be hated by either the left or right,right now its the left hating on Trump and next if a democrat is elected president it'll be the right hating on them,and seems their is no end in sight to this madness.
This election is most important because Democrats must regain control of the house. If they don’t, mega Mike will refuse to certify a Democratic presidential win in 2028. And that’s the big plan that they’re pushing for.
So help Democrats win house seats in your state and other states, and help with state legislatures as well.
15:11 yes 💯
13:26 triple play! ⚾️
Dems better have a plan other than “send me a dollar.”
Pride,pride, & more pride will be the danger for politicians within the WH. Having this fight with our country allies will cause more harm when it comes to the US ecomony. Now it makes me wonder how this fight will impact some food/supply trades in states.
We sure have a lot of illegal money to seize from these criminals when we take everything back. Also, make the RepubliCON party pay for all damages before they are allowed to run FAKE ads again.
LOL Two lunatics for the price of one.
You’ll never beat Trump no matter what you do.
Musk and Theil and the like dream is to eliminate our democratic government and build their idea of euphoric kingdom, but we are to.be included. Make no mistake, these are unbalanced, socially inept, dangerous individuals.
You guys do a terrible job of being optimistic at all. We are just screwed so why bother right? Thats your thesis. Another check from YouTube ànd pn to anorher bullshit podcast where you dont say shit
Rick, keep your hands away from your face
As per the title of this post, why should republicans ‘be worried’? They’re going to ultimately cheat big time in the 2026 midterms!
MAGA is about cutting off your nose to spite your face.
The cuts to SNAP as well, is pulling billions from farm economy, and the velocity of $$ from struggling communities.
Andrew and Catherine are a great pair!! Two highly intelligent people trying to make sense of Repugnican dunces. A nearly impossible task but they make it almost normal!!!! More!!
Trump was put in by the very people. He always acted like he was against to destroy USA
Trump is a failure
This administration is hell bent on culling the herd, here and around the world.
Renaming Lake Ontario to Lake America😅 what a freaking joke. And how exactly does this make America great again along with renaming the Gulf of Mexico?! America was always great, not perfect, but we were always great until he got his greasy fingers on it. It will always be the Gulf of Mexico, and it will always be Lake Ontario. The economy is tanking his ratings are tanking. Instead of focusing on that, he wants to rename a lake.
Gawd. The Midterms. It's so much!
TRIBUNALS!!! Fast!
Only hurts when it hits Chump voters. They won't learn…
they have zero need to worry as the elections will be rigged (as usual)
Trump has not legit won a damn thing …. cheated each and every time and will this time as well
THE GOP has ignored
**Affordability and the Voters 🔵🌀🌊‼️
The only thing I might, just might, accept Trump renaming is the Donald J. Trump memorial outhouse. Even then I would think twice before using it, afraid of what diseases are in there.
When I hear the word "Antifa," I immediately think, anti-fascist, and I just can't think of that as a bad thing. I'd wear the T-shirt.
He makes W look like a strategery genius 😉
Why are you underestimating how loyal his followers are? They dont care how bad or stupid how is. He's their king. Secondly, don't presume he'll accept any election result he doesnt like, and he has sychophants in rvery pisition now to overthrown an election.
Why aren’t the billionaires losing it? He’s killing our economy and there will be a crash. Then what? Do they take their $ and their pedophilia and run?
This is what you get when you put an uneducated, treasonous TRAITOR IN CHARGE OF THE USA. Please vote BLUE.
Chief donny little dick sign a peace treaty with Iran, NOW fool.
Gulf of Mexico, Lake Ontario, Kennedy Center!
Down with Oligarchy and Crazy Lunatic Personality Cult! Make America Sane and Decent Again!
✊🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇺🇬🇱
Let us not forget Trump gave his twin president in Argentina over $40 million dollars to buy that election and now he's buying beef from them and our farms and ranches are barely getting by because their costs are up due to his ridiculous war with Iran.
How much longer???
The only people doing well are Trump's rich cronies who are in on the grift.
Everything Trump touches turns to 💩. He will go down in history as the worst president in history.
People are losing hospitals especially in rural areas. Now people have to drive for hours to reach a hospital. Will they still vote republican?
Elon hated USAID because it funded journalists in South Africa who's reporting contributed to ending apartheid.
People in red states use government benefits MORE than people in the blue states. The blue states fund those programs for the red states.
Well if Molly Jung can change her face through plastic surgery and still say its her reak face, then why can't Trump change the nane of a lake and say it's real?
💙
Senile grandpa yells at cloud. Awesome 😅
Hes worn out his welcome with the small portion of America that did welcome him. It only gets worse from here .
The hilarious thing about the whole Donald Trump grift is this – he wins either way.
His followers are proven “right”. All govt is out to get them and just serve themselves.
The orange turd will walk out of govt having destroyed all trust in institutions and happily watch society implode.
And the thing he cared about were his billions. Just shocking and sad.
Rember when you said kamala was winning in landslide
