The two-week temporary ceasefire has done little to quell GOP fears about the war in Iran costing the party seats in November.
Republicans are relieved over Trump’s steps toward reconciliation in Iran — but they worry the measures are too little, too late to save them from a brutal midterm election cycle.
Behind the public celebration by many Republicans of the temporary two-week ceasefire announcement, longtime party operatives continue to warn of a bleak political reality as the cost-of-living concerns around the war including spiking gas prices that are likely to continue for weeks if not longer even if the fragile ceasefire holds.
A person close to the White House, granted anonymity to speak candidly, put it bluntly.
“This war in Iran almost cements the fact that we lose the midterms in November — the Senate and House,” the person said.
But but but you voted for Trump then! You want Trump to win again! We promise we’re not as bad as the Republicans! Neo-liberals argue much like MAGA does, loaded questions and bad faith.
Exactly why I will never reward them with my vote. Unless they pic AOC, cuz I like her.
I was told Lemmy was a place with fewer conservatives. I’m sadden to see there’s a strong neo-liberal contingent and their apologizers who blame the left for their failure.
