GOP agenda popular, DNC agenda not so much-Pollster
Pollster Jim McLaughlin told Newsmax that the Republican agenda is very popular as opposed to the Democrat agenda. McLaughlin said that this was the case despite what the mainstream media is pushing. The GOP agenda wins when it comes to the economy, immigration, crime, safety, etc. The Republicans also seem to be doing good when it comes to fundraising.
From Newsmax:
Surveys are clearly showing that the Republican agenda is “very popular” and that the positions of the Democrats are not, pollster Jim McLaughlin told Newsmax on Monday.
McLaughlin, who was the Trump 2024 campaign pollster, said on “Wake Up America” that “when you look at the polling … you’re seeing that the Republican agenda, in spite of what you are being told by the mainstream media and the out-of-touch Democrats, you’re seeing the Republican agenda is very popular when it comes to the economy, when it comes to immigration, when it comes to issues like crime and safety in our cities.”
McLaughlin made a point of saying that “a lot of people say that the Democrats have no issues. That is wrong. They do have issues, and all their issues have failed.”
He said, “You look at what happened during the Biden administration; their reckless spending gave us this inflation. The open borders gave the [illegal] immigration.”
McLaughlin stressed that “I wish the election was tomorrow. It’s not. We have a lot of work ahead of us … [but] we are in a much better spot than we were than going into the midterms during the first Trump presidency.”

I gotta 99 problems but Democrats being in charge ain’t one of them. Every office in all of my governments from my Mayor to President are blissfully Democrat free.
Lucky you! You obviously dont live in the once great state of Colorado..
Lots of reasons why. Maybe Commissar will come by later and provide us a living example of why far leftism sucks sweaty balls, swallows and enjoys it.
Even USA Today is agape at the Democrat clown show and how strong the Republicans look. If the ’28 election were held today Vance would win it in a walk. I’m onboard with a Vance/ Rubio ticket. I’m open to other VP options but I think that would knock it out of the park. Rubio has been doing nothing less than a 10/10 stellar job as Sec State. It’s truly a nightmare for the Dems.

They have already given up.

When a 30 year old socialist with an empty resume is the best they can do for NYC, it is over, like way over.
Their biggest flaws is the bold faces lies, some of which, the indoctrinated believe.
Their second biggest flaw is that the TV people helped them for decades to tell people what to think. Therefore they never listened to what the people wanted. Anyone with average or above IQ gave up on being told what to think. So you have the weirdos, party elites, abortion voters and the low performers.
Real Workers (not .gov), first responders, retirees and anyone who believes in self determination has quit and isn’t going back.
The TV people are still at it. Carrying the dem’s water, that is. Here in Michigan, they keep telling us that groceries are not affordable, yet eggs are back down where they were, around my homestead, and beef is still affordable.
As are the add-ons that make up the side dishes. Gas is usually below $3.00/gal unless it’s a holiday weekend.
I can go to Buc-cees right now and get gas for $2.47 a gallon. If I buy the $16 car wash the gas is only $1.47, for the first 15 gallons. Just about everything is cheaper than last year except money.
Money is still very high and I have delayed buying my final retirement home until it gets cheaper. If it doesn’t get cheaper by say February I’m leaving. Probably move to either Greece (3% mortgage rate) or Italy (4%) and enjoy my final years on sunny island beaches and restaurants where you can get a great meal for $15 or less.
Although El Salvador looks shockingly good now. I would never have anticipated that a president would take over, fix the police and the military, throw all the criminals in jail and throw away the key. They went from the most dangerous country in the world to one of the safest in six years. Cost of living is nothing, gun laws have dramatically improved and you don’t have to worry about getting robbed and/or killed.
Washington gas price yesterday was $3.74 a gallon at Costco, which is cheaper than other places. I still remember $0.23 a gallon back in high school (1972).
And I remember it taking a jump to $0.79/Gal. after Jimmah Cawtah took office. I also remember saying to myself; “If it goes to $1.00/Gal. I’m gonna quit driving.”
Well, let’s see, the D-rats are in full throttle doing all they can to let illegal aliens stay in the US regardless of criminal activity, screaming to stop deportations, screaming for DEI to continue along with pimping the trans effluvia, yada-yada-yada…. Y’know what? I’m all in favor of them continuing their rants, let them do it in front of the camera, especially when they do things like that “sit-in” where they looked like pouting spoiled toddlers with dirty diapers, anyone who is sensible does not interfere with an adversary while they’re cutting their own throats!
They need more media coverage not less. Or as JD Vance said yesterday, my advice to Democrats is keep doing what you are doing. I missed the exact quote, the announcer talked all over him because that is what they do.
Behold! The cult grows!
