Trump Confirms DNC Hit

My analysis and prediction from three weeks ago...

Trump's oblique confirmation...

My estimate is 15-20% of Democrat campaign money for 2026 midterms has been axed through the USAID closures, so Republicans will probably pick up several House seats and perhaps a Senate seat as well, thus defying the traditional outcome of minority party gains.

Trump would then have more leverage in 2027 than in 2025. Most of the Left is still entranced by their own fantasticalness and "massive resistance" puppet shows so they haven't noticed what's coming.

Here's your resistance. Search engine interest in Friday's upcoming "economic blackout" versus a baseline of "disco". And Grok 3 with a more sophisticated sentiment analsysis. The economic blackout is probably a non-event like the 50501 protest and Tesla protest.

Grok 3's real-time sentiment analysis on X:

"Critical Examination
The establishment narrative (Newsweek, The People’s Union) hypes the blackout’s “powerful message,” but X’s mixed sentiment and expert doubts (Beene, Ryan) suggest overstated impact. Participation might be inflated by bots or enthusiastic organizers—your earlier MeidasTouch skepticism applies here. Economic data (e.g., sales reports) won’t be clear until March, and sentiment alone can’t predict hard losses. The 24-hour scope limits disruption, and habitual spending (gas, food) could undermine goals, as Beene notes. Still, a vocal minority could spark longer-term pressure if momentum holds."

"Conclusion
Based on X sentiment analysis, the February 28 economic blackout might reduce non-essential retail spending by $85 million to $850 million, with a midpoint of ~$470 million—a small but noticeable dent (0.03–0.14% of daily U.S. retail). This hinges on 1–5% participation, tempered by skepticism and partial compliance."
