Get help🤦: Ohio Congressman Max Miller (R) needs help — it’s the only obvious takeaway from his trainwreck interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper
Miller is credibly accused of abusing two women, including his ex-wife and mother of his child.
Sad👎: Watch his ex-father-in-law Bernie Moreno talk about Miller
Yet Miller says he will stay in Congress and in his reelection race.
What I am thinking💭: Miller says he won’t go because Trump didn’t go when facing various allegations — newsflash, buddy, the rules of Trump don’t apply to you
Zoom out🌍: Miller only compounds the GOP’s problems in Ohio.
Axios headlines, “Reliably red Ohio suddenly a red-hot mess for GOP”
Thought bubble💭: Before we get to coverage of election night — let’s just all celebrate we are having an election — I was worried, you know.
Look back🔙: Two years ago, Democrats warned a Trump victory would mean we would NEVER have an election again — now the socialists are winning elections.
You always worry about the wrong thing.

What I am thinking💭: A few things can be true at once
Socialism is incompatible with American values and has a predictable end state
The anger and frustration in America is real – dismissing it is a mistake
The barista socialist crew has no interest in helping working class Americans
The red-green alliance is the most underreported part of the story
I could keep going, but it’s election night — elections have consequences and messages.
📺See you tonight at 9.
Trump On The Ticket?
‼️An endorsement from the president is what most candidates want — yet this year, GOP candidates are questioning how helpful Trump’s endorsement really is.
Republicans in Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Texas, Ohio and Georgia — all states Trump won in 2024 — have key Senate races and have to figure out what to do with Trump.
❓Do you go out on the campaign trail with Trump?
Or do you keep him away — what about TV ads?
Trump’s approval rating is at 35%
❓How do you not put the sitting president out on the campaign trail?
Can you say no to his help?
❓Do you run away from him?
❓Do they talk about how we need to do more to fix the economy?
Or do you talk about how great Republicans are?
Polling shows 27% of Americans believe Trump is focusing on the right things.
73% say he’s focused on the wrong things.
Reality‼️: Americans are angry about the economy
49% of Americans say they are financially worse off than they were a year ago
People voted for Trump to fix the economy — yet things haven’t gotten better.
Watch tonight📺: Our buddy Erick Erickson on how helpful Trump’s endorsement really is for Republicans.
The Independent Revival👀
👀Independent candidates, many with Democratic roots, are charting a new course as we approach the midterms—and it might be something to celebrate.
📰The Economist headlines, “Americans are sick of Republicans and Democrats. Can Independents win?” writing:
“Voters are dissatisfied with America’s two main political parties, with net favourability for Democrats near a 35-year low. That has created an opening for politicians on the far left, but it is also inspiring a new generation of independents. More congressional candidates have filed to run as independents in 2026 than in any election cycle since at least 2000”
45% of Americans identified as independent voters — this is the highest since at least 1988
Polling shows these voters are more likely to lean Democratic than Republican
What to watch👀: States in the Mountain-West — Idaho, Nebraska, South Dakota, Montana — all have independent Senate candidates that are doing well
Dan Osborn (Nebraska)
Todd Achilles (Idaho)
Seth Bodnar (Montana)
Brian Bengs (South Dakota)
Look back🔙: Trump won these states by 20 to 30 percentage points in 2024
Tonight📺: Idaho’s independent candidate Todd Achilles










I loved your book, gonna have to do the audio book too!!
More Congressional scandal, what a surprise! Like I said earlier, I love Election Day! Go Vote if you're able, and encourage others to do the same. It's like Christmas Eve the night of Elections. DSA aligned candidates that are winning are scary. They want to destroy the American Way. I'm seriously thinking of switching back to Independent from Republican now. I like what you say about it might be time for a third party. Sign me up!
