Republicans are going to get smashed in November, and Trump knows it.

Please note Trump Doubles Down on Calls for Republicans to Nationalize Elections

President Trump doubled-down on his view that Republicans should “nationalize” voting in the U.S., questioning whether certain states should continue running their own elections as spelled out in the Constitution.

“I want to see elections be honest, and if a state can’t run an election, I think the people behind me should do something about it,” the president said Tuesday in the Oval Office, flanked by congressional Republicans during a bill signing ceremony to reopen the federal government.

“Take a look at Detroit…take a look at Philadelphia, take a look at Atlanta,” Trump said, referring to the cities in presidential battleground states as places of alleged corruption, without citing specific evidence. “The federal government should not allow that. The federal government should get involved. These are agents of the federal government to count the vote. If they can’t count the vote legally and honestly, then somebody else should take over.”

Trump’s comments echoed what he said in a podcast interview released Monday with Dan Bongino, his former deputy Federal Bureau of Investigation director, in which he urged Republican officials to “take over” voting procedures in 15 states, which he didn’t name.

Unconstitutional Idea Headed Nowhere

Senate Majority leader John Thune and Speaker of the House Mike Johnson both disagree.

So, this plea will fall on MAGA ears only.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R., S.D.) told reporters that while he was in favor of requiring voters to show identification to prove citizenship in voting, “I’m not in favor of federalizing elections, no. I think that’s a constitutional issue.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.) told reporters Tuesday that the president was “expressing his frustration” about alleged problems in certain Democratic-leaning states enforcing election laws. Asked if Republicans should take over elections, Johnson repeatedly said, “no.”

Start the Steal

Trump has never given a d*mn about the Constitution, so why should he start now?

This is start-the-steal prelude. Trump wants to steal the midterms. And now Tulsi is part of it.

Sickening in multiple ways. But Trump will fail.

Please note Trump’s Immigration Approval Drops to Record Low -34 With Latinos

Only 39 percent approve Trump’s handling of immigration. That’s 39 percentage points too many.

But given MAGA support alone would be in that vicinity, the rest of the country has had enough.

Nearly half (49 percent) of non-MAGA GOP thinks ICE is too aggressive. I am increasingly confident Republicans will lose the House.

Odds of a National “Blue Wave” in Midterm Elections are now 69 percent

In case you missed it, please note Odds of a National “Blue Wave” in Midterm Elections are now 69 percent

Three weeks ago blue wave odds were only 41%.

The more desperate Trump gets, the more likely Republicans lose the House and the Senate.
