https://www.youtube.com/watch/y7H_6JBb5lI The Uncomfortable Truth About Trump and the Midterms 😬🗳️ | Chris Cillizza
Everything about the 2026 midterm elections flows through Donald Trump. The problem for Republicans is simple and terrifying: even they don’t know what he’s going to do next. 😬

In this video, I break down why Trump’s lack of interest in midterm strategy is already freaking out GOP donors, candidates, and operatives — and why that should surprise exactly no one. Using new reporting from the Washington Post 📰, polling data 📊, and hard historical math, I explain why the 2026 midterms are shaping up to be brutal for Republicans.

We cover:
👉 Why Trump is a day-to-day decision maker, not a master strategist ♟️
👉 How midterms almost always punish unpopular presidents 📉
👉 The warning signs piling up for the GOP (retirements, special elections, polling) 🚨
👉 Whether $300 million 💰 and a hoped-for economic rebound can save Republicans
👉 And the uncomfortable truth: Trump cares about Trump first — always

Bottom line: unless Trump suddenly decides that Republican losses would damage his legacy, history says the party is headed for real trouble in November 2026.
