Dems Throw An Anti-Trump Temper Tantrum — Does It Matter?

If Republicans had any hopes of scoring surprise election victories on Tuesday, they were absolutely crushed. The loss was sweeping.

In New Jersey and Virginia, the Republican candidates did worse than Donald Trump just one year ago. And in Virginia, Democrats picked up at least 10 seats in the state legislature. New York elected its most radical mayor in its history. Californians voted by an almost 3-to-1 margin to redraw the state’s districts to squeeze out five more seats for Democrats.

All of these elections had one thing in common – they were akin to a primal scream about President Donald Trump.

After 10 months of nonstop, fact-free shrieking — that

    Trump is wrecking the economy (the latest GDPNow estimate from the Atlanta Fed shows the economy growing 4% last quarter),
    tariffs would spike inflation (prices rose 3% last month, which is lower than almost any month during the Biden administration),
    the world would devolve into chaos (Trump has resolved more global conflicts this year than Biden or Obama combined),
    democracy is threatened (a claim this week’s elections disproved),
    and that Trump is gutting the federal government (spending is up almost across the board),

— voters in these states turned out to vent. Congratulations.

But so what?

Our advice to Trump is to take these results as a wake-up call. He needs to focus more on issues that people care about, do a better job of touting his economic record, talk about growth, about opportunity, about jobs, about getting inflation under control. And spend much less time trying to appease his fanbase and troll the left.

In simpler terms, all he needs is an honest press not consumed with hating 24/7.

Good Luck with that!
