This is a very unusual election year. This year, more than any other election year, the Democrats have two major weapons they can deploy to crush the Republican party in every election:
First, give the Washington DC Republicans everything they want.
Second, be completely silent about it, and control their crazy.
Again, this is a weird election year; I’ll explain.
If the Communists and Progressives, together with all the various subsects under the tent of ‘Democrats’ can have enough self-discipline to follow this guide – they will crush almost every republican candidate and win every key race. It will be the biggest electoral wipeout since 2010, but they also have to be absolutely silent over the next several months.
If the Communists and Progressives can put their crazy into a box for a few months, they will defeat their opposition. Democrats need to take a long summer vacation, stay completely silent, avoid anything political and surface again in late October. That’s it. That’s all they need to do. They can put every nickel of donations and fundraising in the bank and exit the 2026 midterms with billions in saved funds – But they’ve got to hide their crazy; I mean really hide it.
The professional Republican Party in Washington DC is completely disconnected from the American voter, and more importantly from their base of support. This creates a very unusual dynamic. First, let me explain what Republican priorities the Democrats need to support:
♦ Republicans will demand more funding for Ukraine. So, Democrats should give it to them. Two-thirds of the American voters are against the stupid spending on this nonsense proxy war against Russia. If Democrats quietly, silently, just let the GOP fund their proxy war, voters will punish them.
Democrat voters will not care about this, and GOP voters will sit home in frustration.
♦ Republicans will demand re-authorization of FISA (702). Again, two-thirds of the American people do not support warrantless surveillance of American citizens. Again, the Democrats should just give them this demand and then remind voters this is the Washington DC Republican priority.
Democrat voters will not generally care about this obscure issue, and the GOP base will again stew in frustration. BONUS: Democrats then get to weaponize the authority when they get power again and target republicans creating more frustration.
See how easy this is?
There are many more policy points just like these. Why? Well, basically, this is a year when the professional republican priorities in Washington DC are entirely disconnected from their base voter.
♦ The Republican voters have asked DC Republicans for a few simple things like:
1. Voting integrity (SAVE act);
2. Fast track migrant deportations;
3. Confronting lawlessness (Antifa et al);
4. Arrests for criminal corruption and transparently visible violent activity;
5. Spending priorities that focus on Americans’ first, not migrants or foreign interests.
That’s essentially it.
That’s the proverbial “big ask” that is just too much for the Washington DC Professional Republican party to accept.
Washington DC Republicans are fighting every voter ‘ask’ and telling voters their requests are ridiculous and stupid.
♦ DC Republicans always hate republican voters. There’s a long history of this. As a consequence, the only thing that will motivate the republican voters in ’26 and ’28, is the insanity of the Communist left. Republican voters have nothing to vote ‘for‘ because all their ‘asks’ are just, well, being ignored.
If you are a Democrat this is easy, Republicans are handing you the election by keeping their base voters frustrated and at home. However, this also requires the professional Democrats to do something challenging for them; don’t be crazy.
The only thing the communist/leftists need to do in order to win the election, is not be crazy. Actually, just shut up – don’t talk about all that stuff in their head – bank all their donations, do nothing else. Don’t even campaign. Just be completely and entirely quiet.
If the Communists can find enough self-restraint to do that in every election this November, literally just go on vacation until late October, they will crush the Republican party for a decade without spending a dime.
♦ Republican voters are exhausted. They are exhausted from asking for the easiest and simplest things and getting rejected and dismissed by the totality of all Washington DC Republican political leadership.
Obviously, this level of DC disconnect is not accidental. The Republican preference to be in the minority is well known and very well documented. We all understand how each wing of the UniParty operates.
The left-wing demands power. The right-wing demands money. Democrats use money to get power; Republicans use power to get money. Donors to the left-wing support the ideology; the ideology of the right-wing is dependent on donors. This is the difference between the two wings of the DC UniParty.
On the bright side, Communists often struggle to rein in their extreme behavior, so there’s a chance the Democrats could stir up enough wild ideas to drive Republican voters to turn out in large numbers against them.


But why doesn’t Trump voter support carry over? Tis a mystery.
Speaking for those we know support President Trump, it will carry over.
They will have to come up with another pandemic.
Even that would not keep us from voting.
DOYLE: “But why doesn’t Trump voter support carry over? Tis a mystery.”
There is no mystery. Donald Trump himself has made three major mistakes which have damaged his own relationship with the MAGA voter base.
First, he did not move quickly against the Deep State and against election fraud with the force and the aggressiveness that his MAGA voter base was expecting.
Second, he backed down in his confrontation with the sanctuary cities and states over illegal immigrant deportations.
Third, and probably most important, he has gotten the US engaged in another useless Middle East war, putting a foreign policy agenda at the top of his priorities rather than MAGA’s America First domestic priorities.
The vibe I get from the real people around me who inhabit the MAGA voter base is that Donald Trump has become just another DC Establishment Republican — someone who betrays the voter constituencies who elected him.
This Trump voter will vote and hit the repugnant- oops, I guess it says republican – button on my ballot. I will not vote for a democrat ever again.
The best and maybe only reason to vote is to keep dems out of office so they can’t impeach President Trump again.
I dint see the dems being able to keep all of their crazies quiet. Some, yes, but not all of them.
Hey, stop that, don’t give them ideas!
On one hand I don’t think that proffering such good advice to the enemy is a good tactic; on the other, I’m quite sure that T-shirts bearing the message, “Help me, I’m talking, and I can’t shut up!” would be an appropriate gift for these people.
Also, one of Trump’s top aptitudes is the ability to get leftists to lose their mind, so even if they adopted this plan, he’d get them fired up.
The Democrats have to much TDS and are to stupid to take advice from Sundance, or any conservative for that matter. The Democrats are intent on dividing their party into two or even three different parties. I posted yesterday if the moderate wing had a brain in their head they would support the GOP to save their party.
Instead you see guys like Hakeem enabling the people that hate him every bit as much as they hate Tump, MAGA, Republicans and conservatives. The loony left’s coalition of socialism and Islam will never last. They are diametrically opposed on god. One says all government must be decided by god as interpreted through the clergy, the other the government must replace god. How is that going to work out in the long run?
That’s about it. Lucy pulling the ball out from Charlie Brown comes to mind. And can one just imagine how much dirt the IC has on John Thune?
Dayum Sundance. Talk about ripping off the bandaid..
Better to deal with it now before the gangrene sets in.
Treatment is going to be difficult enough at it is without letting it continue to fester.
100%!
The election will hinge on turnout. My vote will be Anti-Democrat and Pro-Trump rather than Pro-Republican.
Only 37% turnout in LA. If Pratt wanted to win maybe he shouldn’t have run such a crap campaign.
Not sure what you were watching but his campaign was amazing.
August turnout in Tennessee is already in the teens ..16% to 18%. My fear is it will go even lower. The overall trend is Lower Turnout except when Trump is on the ballot.
Yeah unfortunately majority only vote on presidential election. It’s really sad, then they wonder what went wrong. Ha!
He was winning and by a huge margin of 40,000 votes before the street people were paid to vote for Nithya Raman in one night. The idiots didn’t even pay a few thousand to vote for Bass to try to make it look legit. But it’s communist California so no one notices such things.
Yes!!!!
In SC i saw a multitude of very slick, get your attn, type ads making most republican candidates look like bad choices.
constant bombartment of negative ads over and over.
dirt was dug up and spread.
it made people vote for other people in knee jerk fashion.
deceptive political knee jerk voting propaganda1🦨
i got really sick of the ads and trash in the mail.
dei choice a no vote.
hand picked governor approved choice a no vote.
an honest man who made mistakes 35 years ago. He got my yes vote but was overwhelmed by the dirty tricks.
and on tue the voting day the voting machines did not work.
Took 7 min to fill out paper ballot.
😳
This analysis is probably correct. The midterms will result in endless Trump impeachments. The Israel-Iran war is also a big factor, as indicated by the recent Mandami primary wins.
Mandami wins had were due to:
Low voter turnout and
We’re not seeing a multi-racial working-class uprising. We’re seeing privileged white gentrifiers organizing a politics of resentment driven by a hatred of America.
It wasn’t “the working class” that voted in this slate of “socialists” and it wasn’t “socialism” they were running on. It was a hatred of this country, a hatred of Israel and the Americans who support it, and and a deeply-embedded resentment that their vanity pursuits haven’t resulted in the riches they were promised in their fancy schools.
All of Mamdani’s endorsees won with the over-credentialed white progressives who make up Mamdani’s base, the multiple-degreed, downwardly mobile, deeply resentful children of privilege who were promised the world and who now have to settle for the knowledge that their degrees will not make them much richer than the working class they pretend to represent.
The narcissism and absolute certainty that they know better will not let them be silent IMO. I hope so anyway.
Agree, but it is genetically impossible for Liberals and, in particular communists, to keep their mouths shut.
Every day President Trump is in office is a gift to America to be savored!
And clearly one that that mightily frustrates the feckless R types in power
Trump needs to step up the pressure on Congress. We can’t repeal the 17th Amendment but Trump can make Congress regret they ever got elected. LBJ would know what to do.
If you think lack of FISA 702 is preventing warrentless surveillance, I have some oceanfront property in Arizona you might like.
So true. They did a thousands of illegal searches already. They will just keep it up.
The more true MAGA Republicans that are in Congress the more real legislation will be able to pass. It’s just about the 50th Senator who holds the leverage and how RINO they are. While the 50th Senator is someone like Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins, Thom Thillis, John Cornyn etc. then of course it’s hard to pass anything real. But Republicans have to keep voting in the midterms. Not voting will only make the problem worse.
Thune loves daddy Xi
It’s completely safe to give Democrats this advice. They are incapable of following it.
Egg-zack-lee! 😝
The GOP does not want Trump to win. No state GOP, local GOP, or federal GOP wants Trump or MAGA to win.
The Nebraska GOP suffered a MAGA coup d’etat a while back, so while nothing is perfect, Nebraska locally does have a bit of an edge. Are our candidates perfect? No, but we could do worse (and have).
True Florida is captured by the Bush Republicans who are doing everything to get Ron ‘Bush’ DeSantis in the White House. DeSantis signed an election integrity law recently but it will not go into effect until Jan. 2027 so won’t apply to 2026 midterms. Self-dealing in that it will apply to 2028 and DeSantis is positioning himself to run in 2028.
And, if the Communists keep the “crazy talk” out of the public square, they will also win back all of the Independents and first time voters who gave the Republicans a chance in 2024…they will either drift back to the Democrats, from whence most of them came, or they will just stay home!
Thune is looking to finally get his “dream job”! He wants to be the MINORITY leader, like his mentor and hero, Cocaine Mitch, because that’s where the REAL money lies and it comes with none of the responsibility or criticism he is facing now!
No Executive Orders have been Codified.
No Recess Appointments, Senate stays in session so we have no MAGA appointees.
There are already Republican RINOs that I will not support. We are in an abusive relationship.
We will not be voting ourselves out of this predicament.
🤷♂️
An understandable reaction but it’s like a historical what if scenario, where only one thing changes to benefit the fictional events that the propounder suggests might have happened. Trump, is going to deliberately drive them crazy, same way the US soldiers would get the Jihadis to attack by insulting the size of their manhoods.
‘I’ve been waiting and preparing for this’, so either the end of the Phase II build, or the start of Phase III.
This is going to be the summer of crazy, and the DSA have already kicked the season off, by reminding people what the Democrat Party has become. Mamdani, Spanberger madam ‘wipe my hands on the flag’ and all the exposed, and soon to be exposed, fraud and deceptions are going to play like a carousel. Then, and only then, will Trump remind people, by endlessly playing clips of Democrat Senators and Congressthems salivating at the thought of winning the house and impeaching the President, what’s truly at stake.
It’s push pull advertising 101, and Trump’s a genius at marketing Trump.
This sounds like a playbook?😳
Even if folks like James Carville understood this strategy intellectually, they are incapable of going a whole week stupid-free, much less several consecutive months stupid-free. It’s just not in their genetic makeup.
Not only are they compelled to stupid, they MUST out-stupid their fellow travelers. They just can’t help themselves.
It’s truly a missed opportunity for them. The people would vote them in, in a land slide, if they could just STFU. And, once you vote-in Marxism, you can’t vote yourself out, eh? But, no, they just aren’t capable.
Sundance’s suggestion is exactly what they did in Virginia. They also had a Republican that could be easily demonized, Soros money, and the Republicans in Virginia hate Trump.
Now we (the citizens of Virginia) lost the ability to purchase certain firearms (and components ~ Magpul will not ship anything to Virginia). Removed minimum sentencing and every Marxist idea the lefty left has imagined.
But I see Trump will have the last word and he if anyone can get them deranged quicker than sailor with a hooker!
As I read this I instantly said, “47 will not let them go quiet”. Then my thoughts were captured in the TSocial above. Ultimately it’s the same as before. Unfortuneately in their quiet they will be figuring out what to do when he once again beats the spread and gets the “Tea Party redux” in at midnight. 12:01 votes become ballots and no one does anything about it. Ask Spencer. Depressing.
President Trump,
Demand Congressional Term Limits.
They sit and vacation just to wait you out as your term is shortened by the day. If they don’t listen to voter then make them pay attention to the calendar.
Put them on the same clock as President.
I can’t see the crazy Commies going quiet just as they are about to take over the Dem Party.
But if they do…..a lot of what SD predicts COULD happen.
Well the GOP prove they care more about their own position, power and paycheck than they do the people that elected them. So does it really matter who wins? It’s all downhill from here anyway.
In a recent interview, Gustavo Gordillo, the co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America in New York, was not going along with your suggestions Sundance. You mention self-discipline but I’m not sure the left has any of that. They are even bragging about something called a dirty takeover or dirty break or ?? where they fake being democrat just to use the democrats and their blind need for DEI. They know how to exploit the leftist guilt for votes and aren’t shy about telling us.
All I know is I am voting Republican and hoping we have a darn good one!. NEVER A DEMOCRAT even though there are a lot of ROTTEN Republicans, I’ll just keep voting until we get it RIGHT!. It took a long time to get this way and now we all have to face the fact that we have to work harder at getting MAGA republicans in.
It won’t be overnight but each mid term and presidential vote has got to be made.
…Urgent! The uniparty wants to pass a huge spending ‘housing’ bill that will destroy the real estate market! If President Trump signs this into law this country is toast. President Trump talked about this yesterday and he said that it would hurt current home owners. No shit Sherlock.
Veto and don’t fall for the Save America Act because its already illegal to cheat elections. The Demoncrats and their cronie buddy RINO’S will always cheat elections. These jackass’s don’t care about laws.
Ok, but leftists always defend into purity spirals. Commies and fascists view each other as apostates.
El Gato Malo on Substack has covered this extensively
I think if President Trump can effectively make this midterm about his presidency, by relentlessly inserting his name into the races, he can re-energize his base
Four months and a couple weeks to 2026 midterms much can happen in that time. The same people who were forecasting a democrat tsunami in Jan. 2026 are now changing their ‘forecasts’. Trump knows this midterm is a must win or else our country is lost, so I will keep an eye on what he does. Also there is an important Supreme Court case that will be decided soon, Watson v. RNC, which can put the kabash on the mail in voting machine used to steal elections. Many moving parts and so far elections during Trump’s term have not fit the historical trends, so it is still an anything can happen right leaning midterm. Much can happen in the next 4 months. Get involved with your local elections and stay involved our country is worth the fight.
