Trump has only ever been "good" for the party when he is on the ticket. When he endorses people and he isn't in the election, it tends to tank them. Maybe they're finally realizing Trump is poison for the party.
To go further, Trump has never been good for the party. He wins elections because the Dems are able to consistently run worse campaigns.
They did run basically the worst possible candidates against him. However, they lost down ballot too.
I'd attribute that to people voting straight ticket. The typical American doesn't put that much thought into who they're electing, you're not gonna see that many people voting for a Republican president and then voting Democrat for their senator.
Yet Trump and AOC both won on the same ticket... And here in Wisconsin Evers the democratic governor and Ron Johnson the republican senator both won on the same ticket.
Voters were mad at inflation. Now both parties have failed to correct that problem.
They said about the party currently controlling all 3 branches of government.
If that's poison then I will happily take some.
Right, because you ignored the rest of my comment and the other statistics. His party got crushed in the 2018 midterms, under performed in the 2022 midterms, and they're about to get smoked again in the 2026 midterms. Hence them trying like hell to gerrymander and rig the election. He's poison when he is not on the ballot and he'll never be on the ballot again.
