Senate Endorsement Success Rates

• Trump’s Record: Trump’s endorsed Senate candidates consistently win upward of 95% to 100% of Republican primary contests (such as a 24-for-24 clean sweep in recent cycles), frequently clearing out more moderate or establishment incumbents.
• Historical Comparison (Obama & Biden): During the 2018 midterms analyzed by Brookings, Barack Obama and Joe Biden-backed candidates in congressional races achieved combined win rates roughly between 57% and 74%, significantly lower than Trump’s primary figures.
• Incumbency Factor: Political analysts note that a large share of Trump’s endorsements go to safe incumbents, though he has also uniquely deployed his backing to oust sitting members of his own party who cross him.

3 of the winning candidates Trump endorsed were in Florida, that’s a gimme.

Three of the races Trump endorsed candidates lost were in blue states: Virginia and New Jersey. No Republican was winning Virginia after Trump canned thousands of government employees who live in DC bedrooms communities.

Two of the Trump losses were in urban areas of Texas (Dallas-Fort Worth) and Florida (Miami). Another Trump win was in NYC on Long Island.

The others: Cuomo in NYC and a Supreme Court election in Wisconsin. Good luck winning those….

The point is he endorsed 9 candidates and won 4. The 5 he lost were in states where Republicans don’t win or in Blue areas of Red States where Republicans don’t win. Regardless of who endorses them.

In their defense, Democrats aren’t taught how to defend a position. They never have been able to so that didn’t change. What has changed is the Democrat Party doesn’t encourage an exchange of ideas.

If Democrats are anything, they stick together and push the narrative. Here is no different.

They all claimed Biden was amazingly articulate and still sharp as a razor until the debate. Then they all pivoted to the same narrative in a day or two.

Hive mind is worthless when it comes to defending a position but invaluable when it comes to controlling the narrative.

Oh look economic
GDP Growth: Real GDP has grown significantly faster under Democratic administrations (averaging roughly 3.5% to 4.3% annually) compared to Republican administrations (averaging roughly 2.4% to 2.5% annually). Or when we had higher public investment we saw the biggest boom?

No it has happened you chose to ignore it.


The us vs them talk is weak. I understand there are some find no fault in their chosen one. Not me. Biden showed cracks way before the debate.

How bout you? How you feeling about Trump waving to nobody? Or is that another deep state conspiracy against dementia Donny?
