Trump spent a month telling Republicans to treat this election like his name was on the ballot. Democrats won both the House and the Senate. So who is he blaming? Not himself. He’s blaming Fox fucking News, then he called into Fox for a 22-minute interview.
He congratulated Democrats, which is what a president should do. But he said the results weren’t about him and put the blame on candidates who didn’t turn out his base. You campaigned for them, Donald. You endorsed them.
Voters had real reasons to be pissed. The cost of living, gas prices, the war with Iran, and a lot of them wanted checks on the president’s power.
Now Republicans are turning on their own leadership. According to Axios, some House Republicans don’t see a path for Mike Johnson to survive. The NRCC chairman, whose whole job was to protect the majority, reportedly lost his own seat. Leadership elections are November 10.
Elections are complicated, and not every loss is Trump’s fault. But I spent two decades in law enforcement, and when you lead, you own the outcome. Everybody here is looking for somebody else to blame.
I’d like to see somebody in that party take responsibility for something. For once.
