First, the party that out of power generally does well in the midterms.
There was a blue tsunami in 2018 and Dems held on in 2020. We certainly weren't crushed in 2024 and we gained seats in states. So not sure why the doom and gloom here that hopefully, fingers crossed, maybe if we squint the Dems might pull something out in 2026.

Dems are beginning to get their act together and hopefully it is just the beginning. You know what I would love to see? The GOP leader who isn't Adam Kinzinger or Liz Cheney stand up and say "enough." Just because we know they are cowards doesn't mean we should stop demanding they do something.
And where are our former presidents? I don't blame BIden. He certainly tried to warn us, even though too many people have amnesia. But where are the rest of them? It's not the norm for a former president to speak out. But we demolished norms years ago. Isn't the nation the led worth the fight?

Do any of our former presidents have enough credibility with enough people to be effective messengers?
Hmm. Maybe Laura Bush and Michelle Obama. I'll bet they are more popular than their husbands.
