Former Trump campaign chairman and White House chief strategist Steve Bannon told his podcast viewers that Republicans should take Tuesday night’s losses to heart, saying: “The midterms start tonight, and the warning signs are flashing.” He observed that “Democrats just flipped two Georgia commissioners,” marking “their first statewide wins in 30 years.”
Far-right influencer Mike Cernovich (who spawned the “Pizzagate” conspiracy theory) tweeted: “Ted Cruz and Mark Levin are walking Trump into impeachments and then prison. 2026 will be a blood bath.” MAGA podcaster Jack Posobiec likewise warned that “2026 will be worse if we don’t course-correct.”
What? Is he trying to gaslight the fact that both of Georgia’s US Senators have been Democratic since 2020? One of whom was subject of intense media coverage for back-to-back runoff elections in 2020 and 2022 with the US Senate majority up for grabs?
Yeah, I looked into it, they are saying these two specific seats were held by Republicans for decades. I’ve seen reports of 30 and 40 years.
