In America today, our two major political parties are moving in opposite directions. For Republicans, it might be the “best of times.” Under the leadership of President Donald Trump, the GOP is feeling confident. Republicans have a strong chance to retain control of the Congress in 2026 midterm elections despite the party out of power traditionally gaining many new seats.

This political environment is different. President Trump has had an incredibly successful first nine months of his second term and this will help Republicans in the midterm elections.

After four years of no border security under the previous administration, it has been secured, and zero illegal aliens have been released into the country in the past four months. Additionally, almost 500,000 illegal aliens have been deported, while another 1.6 million noncitizens have self-deported.

Through his leadership, President Trump has dramatically increased interest in serving in the U.S. military, so recruitment levels are soaring. Under the previous administration, there was a desperate shortage of new recruits.

It is no mystery why Americans did not want to serve under Commander-in-Chief Joe Biden. During his presidency, America suffered the humiliating withdrawal of U.S. military forces from Afghanistan that resulted in the death of 13 American service members.

In contrast, President Trump has effectively utilized American military power. He authorized the successful air strike on the Iranian nuclear facilities, which severely degraded their dangerous military program and made the Middle East a much safer region.

By restoring our military strength, President Trump fosters a better environment for peace throughout the world. The motto “Peace Through Strength,” is not just a slogan, it works.

While the laughable Norwegian Nobel Committee again refused to award the Nobel Peace Prize to President Trump, it is internationally recognized that he is the leading peacemaker in the world today. In his two terms in office, the President has ended multiple wars and achieved the groundbreaking Abraham Accords.

In achieving a peace agreement between Israel and Hamas and ending the war in Gaza, President Trump is giving hope to millions of people throughout the region and accomplishing what many world leaders believed was impossible.

With his Republican colleagues in the Congress, President Trump achieved the passage of the “One Big Beautiful Bill” that gave Americans the biggest tax cut in history. By instituting tariffs on countries treating America unfairly, the President has leveled the playing field for trade and will bring in approximately $350 billion annually in revenue.

Many economists claimed that the tariffs would generate massive inflation, but, alas, they were mistaken again. The current inflation rate is only 2.9%, much lower than the 9.1% inflation rate in 2022 during the disastrous Biden administration.

With interest rates finally starting to fall and the real gross domestic product growing by a strong 3.8% in the second quarter of 2025, the Trump economy is booming, despite the negative spin from the Democrats.

The President has unleashed our energy industry and secured $17 trillion in new investments into our country. While Democrats claim the investment figure is exaggerated, it is undoubtedly trillions of dollars more than the Biden administration produced.

While Trump and Republicans are generating results, Democrats offer nothing but negativity. It is caused by the epidemic that is contagious among Democrats, Trump Derangement Syndrome.

No matter what President Trump accomplishes, such as lowering the cost of prescription drugs, Democrats will complain. In fact, some Democrats are even reluctant to praise the President for ending the war in Gaza.

Another example is the Democrat opposition to the President’s effort to bring safety to urban areas across the country. The President has authorized the National Guard to be used in Los Angeles, Washington D.C., Portland, Chicago and Memphis, all cities led by Democrat Mayors.

All these areas are overrun by crime caused by the failure of progressive policies. In several cases, Democrat Mayors have opposed Trump’s efforts and filed lawsuits despite the verifiable success of the initial deployments.

Democrats are also opposing the deportation of criminal illegal aliens. Some Democrat leaders have demonized agents of Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) and tried to stop these law enforcement officials from doing their jobs.

Not surprisingly, the inflammatory language has encouraged lunatics on the left to commit violence, leading to a 1000% increase in assaults against ICE officers in 2025.

Thus, Democrats are opposing peace deals, the deportation of criminal illegal aliens and almost everything being offered by Trump and the Republicans. It is why the nation is dealing with the “Schumer Shutdown.” Democrats are demanding healthcare spending for illegal aliens, as well as funding for public broadcasting. They are trying to force the funding of their radical agenda that was excluded in the “One Big Beautiful Bill.”

Republicans need to stand firm and highlight the obstruction of Democrats and the unpopularity of their policies. According to the Real Clear Politics poll average, Democrats have a favorability rating of only 33.6%, lower than both Republicans and President Trump.

Democrats are also fielding awful candidates, such as President Biden, who was extremely unpopular and ineffective and Vice President Kamala Harris, who was universally disliked and is promoting a book that takes jabs at fellow Democrats.

Furthermore, their statewide candidates have been failing spectacularly. In Virginia, their Attorney General candidate, Jay Jones, sent texts to a GOP House Delegate calling for the murder of the Republican speaker and his family. His deplorable actions have not been enough for their gubernatorial candidate, Abigail Spanberger, to withdraw her endorsement.

In California, gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter had an epic meltdown during an interview and tried to storm out of the studio when asked how she would appeal to the 40% of the state that supported President Trump. Other videos of her berating staff members have surfaced showing that her volatile temperament is not suited for the position of Governor.

While the GOP, led by Trump, has produced results, Democrats offer horrible policies and candidates, presenting a vivid contrast to the American people. 

Editor’s Note: The Schumer Shutdown is here. Rather than put the American people first, Chuck Schumer and the radical Democrats forced a government shutdown for healthcare for illegals. They own this.
