    He has a plan and he has things he wants to accomplish. I think he’s only counting on 2 years and he doesn’t want to go through 2 years like he did in the first administration.

      Only two years of undivided government?

      That tracks. Even beyond the normal anti-incumbent backlash they have an unfavorable map in 2026. Nate posted about it today.

      Only non-witches get due process.

        What astounds me about Trump is his inability to stump and pull others across the finish line. I mean, all he would need to do is send a message… “Arizonans, if you’re voting for me, I also need you to vote for———- for Senate/Congress. No matter your personal opinions about the candidate, I can’t do what you want me to do without having a clear majority in Congress. A vote for me is wasted without ———-“ But he doesn’t do it. I don’t think he wants to admit he needs the others.

          I don't know if this is true, but I saw someone say that this is not the first time that a presidential winner didn't have long enough coattails to pull a senate candidate across.

          But, it's the first time that it happened in three states at the same election.

            splitting the ticket for an intentionally divided government is a high IQ move.

                      It’s an interesting Senate. Remember that 3 of the Republicans are Romney, Murkowski, and Collins… And whoever DeSantis appoints to replace Rubio. I wouldn’t assume that to be a Trump Loyalist…

                          Pete Hegseth for SecDef.

                          Was NOT expecting that.

                          He'll probably be the first SecDef with ink.

                                        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                                          Is he imagining that Congress will create a new department? Or did he just want to goose Dogecoin? (which doubled this week)

                                          Only non-witches get due process.
