These were my first official graphics:

You can now track candidate spending on my website!!

Truly incredible things happening on twitter

@suburbanwinebro @MrH4m @BasedIllinoisan the same difference is quite literally showing up in current polling

@LeftRight234 @MrH4m @BasedIllinoisan Yeah my point is that this won’t happen again. And?

I don't care how much money Rick Jackson has, he is 100% losing if Jon Ossoff wins by so much as 5 points.

@suburbanwinebro @MrH4m @BasedIllinoisan

@MrH4m @BasedIllinoisan Those ticket splits are much more extreme than what we could expect in Georgia where the only demo expected to split their ticket are the ever left-shifting northern atlanta suburbanites. It makes sense for this year to finally be their last straw.

Trump’s job approval rating has plummeted below the level that triggered midterm wave elections vs Clinton 94, W. Bush in 2006, Obama in 2010 & Trump himself in 2018. And yet most surveys do not show Dems establishing a clear advantage in the key races that will decide control.

what is your hottest 2026 midterm take?

@realPrestonHill I think the gop will run slightly better than 2018 due to dems own mishaps but this was just a specific question about Trump's approvals not about the overall midterm environment

@realPrestonHill I think if the 2022 midterms / 2024 downballot races tell us anything is that even though trump's voters are probably being missed in the polls, that won't automatically translate to non trump gop candidates. It's also a 5 point gap

I feel like an underrated reason Republicans are in for a better year than 2018 is Trump has been the leader in politics for 10 years and the backlash against him will be far weaker than 2018 when he was still fresh on the scene, but now voters are much more used to him.

@hippo_politics @realPrestonHill I didn't challenge that the GOP will do better than 2018, I think you're overinterpreting my question, which was about his approval specifically not the GOP's midterm chances.

@LeftRight234 @realPrestonHill He said republicans are in for a better year than 2018. You challenged that based on trumps approval. I explained how polarization will prevent a wipeout and how approval doesn’t translate to party support because of polarization.

@ferald_gord This is probably gonna sound stupid but would Bernie not count?

@LeftRight234 he was DSA endorsed in the gubernatorial primary, and the convention. he’s done a couple cross-posts with them on instagram. idk if he’s dues paying member, but he’s definitely aligning himself with them.

Black Detroiters being momentarily blinded by the whiteness at the Bernie Sanders Led Abdul El Sayed rally.

@hippo_politics @realPrestonHill Nowhere did I say dems would wipeout the gop, nor do I think that will happen, I just posed a question about trump's approval lol

@LeftRight234 @realPrestonHill I mean that bad approval doesn’t translate to midterm wipeout. There’s plenty of voters who disapprove of Trump but will vote Republican/Trump/Vance again. I find myself hating his policies sometimes (Iran/science/energy) but I’ll still come home for the midterms.

@clusterbitch_ our great friend bibi netanyahu wants Argentina to win, all will be fine

trump betting on argentina.. it’s over messi nation

The Dem establishment deserves every bit of what’s happening to them right now. They’ve spent a decade (at least) nurturing the DSA/squad types because they naively assumed they’d stay obedient and only run in a select few deep blue districts. But of course, kids never listen to their parents forever, and now the DSA is too big for its britches. If the Dem establishment had clamped down on this madness in 2018, the DSA would’ve been a minuscule footnote in American history. But they were willing to tolerate socialist, anti-American rhetoric so long as it didn’t harm them politically. Now, 8 years later, they’re being forced to throw up hail Mary’s left-and-right in ME/WI/MI in a desperate last-ditch attempt to maintain control through underhanded means, because they’ve lost all control through legitimate ones. And that might work to some extent this year, but what happens come 2029 when Schumer and his goons are no longer there to bully out the insane asylum? I think we all know the answer.

@CedricBts actually agree on that

@LeftRight234 Reverse Ohio 2024. +3 Jackson

How will this race go?

@hippo_politics @realPrestonHill would polarization not help Trump's approval? he won 50%, he's at -20, worse than when the country was *less* polarized in 2018, this doesn't make sense

@LeftRight234 @realPrestonHill Polarization and the economy post Covid.

@thebearpundit "cannot be a POTUS election"

@LeftRight234 Actually it’s the 2016 presidential

@davidslosttt both sides obviously wishcast but some of the more moderate and objective people on both sides make more realistic predictions, here's mine for example x.com/LeftRight234/s…

@LeftRight234 Con ET is having the same problem this year I hate to say it. It’s a cycle
