2026 Mid-Term Elections

The $5,000 to every voter IF the GOP is returned in both houses is an outright bribe. He already promised the people money before and didn't deliver - DOGE $5,000 in February 2025, and tariff rebates on two occasions, each of $2,000.
His promises are worthless.
Is it technically a bribe if you don’t deliver on it?

Also, aren’t bribes typically delivered prior to the action, while tips are what you give after. </pedant>
That’s the reasoning SCOTUS in overturning a bribery conviction in Snyder v United States.
Yes... when the Robert's Court pulled out the tardigrade hair splitting machine.

Bribes offered in advance and in public, are called “incentives”.
Dems should offer a $500,000.00 incentive to every household worth less than $10m as long as they win the House and the Senate.
Of course they won’t deliver, but neither will Trump, so who cares?
 
Buying votes now? This must put derec in a tizzy considering his Biden payments to taxpayers causing inflation.
I don't know why you are singling me out since I am not a Trump supporter. But of course it's a bad idea. Probably won't be implemented though, even if GOP were to hold on to both House and Senate.
 
Enough will believe Trump about this dividend and Trump knows it. It's what he does. It's who he is. The Democrats either match him lie for lie or make a public and blunt statement telling the American people he's a fucking liar. In those terms. It's got to stick.
I'm normally up for fighting fire with fire when it comes the Shitgibbon, but I think big, persistent campaign adds should be run in purple and slightly red states. It should be run in red parts of blue states as well, but the swing states are especially crucial. Keep Vance's name in it too because he's the likely GOP frontrunner.

The GOP spent 30 f'ing years going after Hillary. Surely the Dems can keep up something like this for twenty five months or so.

The one thing we can say about Trump is he in brutally open about his bribery.
He doesn't try to hide by calling it nation-building, infrastructure improvements etc.

Yep. I hope tthe Dems have a strategy.
Keep hammering on gas and groceries. Even if it's not supported by the numbers, you can always get people to agree that everything cost too much.
 
Elon Musk's super PAC has created a website that mimics vote.gov. It's called votesafe*org. It's nothing more than a data collection effort.

Has everyone forgotten Trump refused to pay a youth dancing group performing for him at his first time around running for President? Or that he is notorious for not paying his workers? There is no fucking chance anyone ever seeing a cheque from him.

This is a set up to blame the Democrats when it fails to materialize.
 
The Republican running in the Senate race here has been claiming in his commercials that, during his time with the FBI, he worked on getting Osama Bin Laden captured. A total fabrication.

I thought the FBI was a solely domestic institution. So how does that work?
