However, Democrats still have problems having Americans trust them, with many voters feeling the party is too “liberal”, which makes the problem of who is the best candidate for Democrats in 2028 problematical.

Motivating Americans to vote, including millions who did not vote in 2024, will be the major issue that decides the Midterm Elections of 2026. And Independents, and young voters, will be crucial factors.

On a generic ballot, Democrats at present have a five point edge, but whether that will hold or expand in the next six months, is hard to project.

    I came across this Psychological Profile of the average demographics of a Trump supporter. I think it nails it.

    Thanks, Wayne, for this video, right on the mark, and very troubling, demonstrating how mentally ill Trump supporters are, and willing to follow a very self centered, dangerous person who is undermining America both domestically, and in international affairs! :I(

    And so was this:
    The survival of the Kent State massacre, which occurred on May 4, 1970, is marked annually by the somber tolling of the campus Victory Bell at 12:24 p.m.. This act of remembrance honors the four students killed and nine wounded—the “Blood Brothers” and sisters—who were shot by the Ohio National Guard during anti-war protests.

    I can’t help but draw a parallel to then, and the shooting of people by ICE in Minneapolis.

    “History doesn’t repeat itself, it’s more of a copy and paste without even changing the font.”

    Yes, Wayne, I well remember Kent State, a scar on American history, and I have thought of the connection to the two murders by ICE in Minneapolis! 🙁

    So much for the “ceasefire”; back to the deadline set under the War Powers Act!

    The 41% who think he’s ok to serve are idiots.

    Massive waste of money.

    They’re VERY safe and VERY effective.

    A “report” figured this out, huh? I mean, this has been GLARINGLY OBVIOUS for decades now – Americans almost always think crime is high and/or going up up up, even when it’s low and/or going down down down. This is largely the media’s fault, by the way, for its relentless, irresponsible, ghoulish “if-it-bleeds-it-leads” coverage.

    Whitewashed, propagandistic “history,” in other words.
