You are whistling past the graveyard if you think this margin of victory isn’t concerning.
Blue states yes. But Sears got 600,000 votes less than Trump did, because the Republicans can’t motivate voters to get to the polls without Trump on the ticket.
If the Republicans can’t win without Trump, we will get destroyed in 2026
My concern has been Gen Z. As the Silent Generation passes (age range 79-97) Gen Z (age range 13-28) replaces them, votes and the results are worrying. In NYC 81% of Gen Z women voted for the Dem candidates, in NJ it was 80%, VA had 78%. Gen Z males were less, roughly 20 pts less, but still more for Dems than Republicans.
The Silent Generation was largely conservative while Gen Z looks to be largely liberal. Unless Gen Z voting habits change, many an election will move to the Dems and the mid-terms are toast. Money can't overcome that percentage of a generation voting one way. It can put a sizeable dent in it, but not overcome close "purple" races.
In the past, people tend to vote Republican as they get older, but this is fading somewhat...Gen X isn't changing as much as the Boomers who didn't change as much as the Silent's. There will need to be a major event that shifts votes. Absent that, I just don't see how the Republicans hold the house.

Two things. One, look at the response below. The Democrats do not reject hate, they've made it an election winning strategy. Virginia Democrats put the seal of approval on candidates openly wanting their opponents, and their children, to die. In another era that would have been a career ending position. It now guarantees you a win. The VA election matters because it wasn't just the state level races, the Democrats now have an almost supermajority. They are going to get rid of all but one Republican Seat. CA is redistricting even further, getting rid of any marginal Republican seats. Red states will not respond in kind, so there goes the House next year.
Second, that hate is unifying. Again, look at the VA election. Democrats will vote D no matter what. And more importantly, they will vote even if they don't like the candidate or don't care about the race. Meanwhile, Republican voters sit at home. The social media leaders are involved in a civil war while the GOP House and Senate do nothing. What legislation have they passed? Everything that you like about Trump has been done by Executive Order or because it falls under Executive control. Nothing has been enshrined in law. Which means most of it goes away next year when the Democrats take Congress and it all goes away in 2028 when they take the WH. Because after another failed Trump presidency where nothing gets done, they'll sit at home while the left once again gets everyone out to vote. That's why this election mattered.
Trump won 2 million votes in Virginia. Sears didn’t even get 1.5 million.
500,000 Trump voters didn’t go to the polls.
The reason they brought in Obama and all of the big names in was so they could get Jay Jones over the line. They want to redistrict VA, that’s why the mobilized so heavily.
What are you talking about none of what you just said made sense.
The Democrats do not care who they support they only pursue power.
The reality is that Trump Voters didn’t go to the polls.
600,000 of them didn’t go to the polls.
Thats why the GOP lost, because they didn’t motivate the base to vote for Sears. It’s a complete and total failure of the party to work the ground game. That’s it. Nothing else. They failed.
The Republicans will fail again if Trump isn’t on the ticket, because Trump motivates low propensity voters.
The GOP doesn’t. Go look at turnout data in South West Virginia.
40% drop in some counties. That’s a failure to get the vote out. That’s a failure to communicate with the base.
I have no idea what you are arguing, because the only thing delusional is the fact that the Republican Party didn’t rally the base, and as a result? They got obliterated.
You are a CRAZY MAGATARD PIECE OF SHIT…MAGA WILL NEVER BE VIEWED AS ANYTHING OTHER THAN A RACIST FASCIST NAZI HATEFUL WANNA BE PARTY THAT WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS THE WORST AND MOST SHAMEFUL MOVEMENT IN MODERN DAY HISTORY! SATAN WILL WELCOME ALL OF YOU TO HELL WITH YOUR ANTICHRIST LEADER!
They are blue states. What's the big deal. It turned out exactly as expected. The GOP should be concerned about 2026? Total BS.

Probably nothing illegal happening with the vote counting, either huh?
Even if there was fraud.
South West Virginia had a 40% drop in turnout.
The numbers don’t lie. They show that Trump’s base didn’t show up.
And it’s no surprise, because they didn’t message to them at all.
We defeated Fascist Nazis in WW2
Now we are defeating fascist Maga

You are completely discounting the margin of victory that they just had.
Your concept would be accurate if it was a tight-ish race.
This was an absolute blowout. Not even remotely close. And that’s because the Trump voters did not show up.
The GOP is going to get absolutely obliterated without Trump voters, and hopefully this election teaches them that.
No they didn’t.
Trump won 2 million votes in Virginia. Sears didn’t even get 1.5 million.
500,000 Trump voters didn’t go to the polls.
