The thing about being the "silent majority" party is that the "silent" part still applies. The current GOP is suffering from the same ills that plagued the Obama-era Democrats, and this low-propensity status is why the only two Republicans (or R-affiliates) to win statewide are Donald Trump and Ron Johnson since 2016*.
*Except Brian Hagedorn in 2019... by 6 thousand votes.
Does this result mean that a blue wave a la 2018 is imminent? No, if only because the group of competitive House districts has shrunken to a point where the +40 gain of 2018 just physically isn't possible, but I would expect the emboldened liberal majority to redraw the House districts to flip 2 red seats blue (6-2 R >> 4-4).
However, this liberal hold guarantees control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court through 2028, and the conservative wing can very easily be decimated should the conservative seats up in 2026 and 2027 (in the same part of the year!) be flipped liberal. This could lead to a 6-1 liberal Wisconsin S.C. in 2027, mirroring the 6-1 conservative Court achieved in the peak of the Scott Walker era.

This election would have secured a Republican victory in the House in 2026. Now they just lost it and we're all gonna get fucked hard in the coming years. Back to the longhouse we go.

You’re a blackpilled Cuck.
I remember you fucks said we’d lose 2016 and 2024.

The Democrats were hoping to shrink the House Repub majority by gerrymandering Wisconsin. If Florida also lost their special elections, Trump would be stonewalled upon losing the House.

Did we lose the Florida elections?

Everyone is blackpilling hard over this. The fact that this thread isn't is telling of how much people actually pay attention to US politics here.

If it gets overturned it'll eventually hit the Supreme Court. That'll force it to be law of the land considering the SC's current track record. I don't get why people blackpill so hard when a leftist judge stops it.

Also, no food, drink, or sleep for a long time will effect you mentally too. I didn't watch the speech but if what he said was true, then more than most of it should just be incoherent rambling.

You make good points about the danger, and humor, of a 24 hour filibuster.........How do we force the rest of them to do it?

Ultimately if the GOP is willing to let the Ds outspend them 10 to 1 in special/midterm elections this will be the result. Musk or whoever else better step up and commit big bucks to counter the corpo dems. You don't even have to match them. The GOP got outspent 3 to 1 last year and still raped the democrats. Just can't have a 10 to 1 gap. Hopefully this is a wakeup call. They have plenty of time to get their funding in order. And get some wiz kids to figure out how to get the smooth brained maga base to actually come out and vote in elections where Trump is not on the ballot.

20 showed them how to win in 24. We'll see if this does the same for 26

I'm referring to these mainly.
>D +8.6 House vote leading to D pickup of 41 seats
>Democrats picking up governorships all across the country

Wikipedia lmao.

Anyone who isn’t an American should be thread banned here. What they say has no bearing or meaning.


Anyways. I still don’t understand why you people are so blackpilled. We won the actual Congress seats in Florida.
How does winning 2/3 elections today mean The House is lost in 2026?
