MAGA Mike is running scared?

He told a bunch of his fellow collaborators that if the Democrats win in November, Trump will be impeached and everyone will be investigated, including his comrades in the room. He told them he was the leader of their protection racket.

It was a reminder that the election is getting closer. Republicans are starting to sweat. Trump presents a lot of problems for them, with the cover up of pedo files and the unjustified war in Iran, but they will stick with Trump and try to steer around all the obstacles. They believe their propaganda system is strong enough to withstand any attack from the Democrats.

It does appear they have temporarily found a way to get the oil thru the Strait of Hormuz. They have promised Oman protection, and likely other rewards, if they will let the ships thru the "Omani route", to be guided by the American military. The markets seemed to be pleased with that strategy as the price of oil dropped very quickly once a few tankers made their way through. Then one of the tankers took a hit from the Iranians and Trump started bombing again. How long will this continue?

We can judge how the Democrats are doing by the degree of panic on MAGA Mike's face.

The Democrats need to prosecute the traitors, but Moses Mikey and Associates know they are up the creek without a paddle when the Great Unwashed they’ve screwed come after them in public, en masse, and for the rest of their lives.

...I think a lot of them are turning against the Republicans. The polls would indicate so but we cannot put too much faith in the polls.

As the fear in his big but soulless eyes showed in his address to the repugs’ caucus, Moses Mike and MAGA will be begging to get locked up for their own safety.

Republican Platform for the 2026 Mid-term Election is litetally to be a "Protection Program" for Trump and fellow Republicans."

These are the actual words of Speaker of the House, a man 3rd in line to the presidency.
