“Seventy percent of Trump’s 2024 voters support last month’s strikes, according to the survey conducted from March 13 to 18 by London-based Public First. Meanwhile, 56 percent of former Vice President Kamala Harris’ voters oppose them.”

Mastodon liberals take note: being against Trump’s foolish war is neither a winning strategy (today) nor a guarantee for votes.

You have to be for something that benefits the American voter.

Trump stretches ‘America First’ on Iran. His voters are going along with it.

Still, his hold could grow more tenuous if the number of U.S. casualties rises and the war stretches into the summer.

always drop ours off in the county #ballotbox box. There's no postal service involved. :)

Yea that's the way😁 but I'm worried _IF_ the reports are true, that the #USPO is underfunded, then the folks who vote in the Nov. #midterms2026 #midterms might have their #MailinVoting "lost in the mail or "return to sender" 😱

The Postal Service may be out of cash in 2027 without Congress' help, postmaster says

In 2024, Trump won Idaho by one of the largest margins in the country.

Now, its secretary of state is resisting the administration’s efforts to gather sensitive voter data ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.

As Trump Demands Voter Data, This Fiercely Independent Red State Says No

Wary of federal intrusion, Idaho passed a law three decades ago allowing it to sidestep so-called motor-voter laws. The exemption and the sentiment behind it are fueling resistance to President Donald Trump’s Justice Department.

“ A rundown of the Trump administration’s scandals and crimes resembles, with shocking likeness, the grave, sweeping charges laid out in the Declaration of Independence against the last American king.”

More, now than ever, Democrats need to win elections. That is the only way we can hold the Trump administration and its officials accountable

There Will Be No Post-Presidential Peace for Donald Trump

The president and his allies will face impeachments, lawsuits, and maybe even The Hague.

Is it possible to question whether nasty revelations about #CesarChavez are *really* such pressing & important news that it merits front page headlines?

I'm not defending any #pedos -
I'm saying the timing & intense focus are interesting, given all that's going on & the fact that the whole #Republican party is trying to pretend their Dear Leader didn't do anything wrong

#Journalism #Genocide #Midterms #GasPrices
@FAIR

Help me understand, #PoliticalScientists, why would you piss off your own army months before you expect to rely on them to pull off your #coup? And drive the price of gas through the stratosphere ensuring heavy losses in the #midterms for the only people who can protect you, politically?

Just kidding. He's incapable of that sort of thought. And increasingly any thoughts at all. #SunTzu #USPol

We protest peacefully March 28 and must be able to vote in the midterms. If we, the people, are denied our Constitutional Rights, It’s our responsibility to defend our country & the world from tyranny. #NoKings #midterms
