The not-so-virtuous USAID cycle...

"However, data indicates a strong correlation between
higher campaign spending and electoral success. For
instance, in the 2024 election cycle, the candidate
who spent the most won 93.92% of House races and
87.88% of Senate races.
ActBlue "raised" $3.8 billion for the 2024 elections. If $2 billion (half) of that money was Federal funds hijacked through a "virtuous cycle" via USAID, Trump just cut most, if not all of it, off from the 2026 mid-term elections.
Total 2024 election spending was around $16 billion, assume 1/2 was from the Democrat party. The loss of $2 billion out of $8 billion is a 25% cut.
Cook Political Report just released an analysis which shows 18 tossup House seats in 2026, of which 10 are Democrat. Even a 10% loss in total campaign spending will shift several seats to Republicans. Now add the DNC financial shipwreck left in Kamala's wake, David Hogg as DNC vice chair, several blue States in financial trouble and the doubling down on DEI/sanctuary/trans insanity.
Oh, well.
Trump may have dealt a deathblow to the Democrat Party this week.
