If Trump was hoping the Epstein headlines would die down and his approval ratings would climb, this wasn’t his week. If Democrats were hoping for a strong start to Roy Cooper's Senate campaign, they got their wish. And if you’re in the mood for some applause-worthy wins, this Week In Wins delivers.

That the Republican candidate still gets 41% and his name is not recognized is astonishing. It shows that the siloing of information is difficult to overcome, party loyalty is difficult to break, and perhaps Repubs are not yet feeling pain from Trump actions. NC, please talk to your neighbors.

A Great Depression is the only way at this point. Hate to sound accelerationist, but yeah. A lot of the 1920's GOP support eroded only because the economy got so bad and FDR was able to convince the public for something better.

Yup. Dem leaders do deserve blame from 2 directions: they can’t articulate (much less drive towards) policy & funding changes that would lift up working class people; they are bought and bossed by billionaires, bankers and rightwing lobbyists (AIPAC) so they support stuff their constituents hate.

"they can't articulate ' Yep. Word salad. Reflective of one or more of: - utterly powerless - can't think outside the box (GOP knows no boundaries) - just wait it out until midterms (they assume too much)

I give a tiny bit of credit to Chuckie, who has been stalling Drumpf appointments in the Senate. Usually he’s a feckless enabler. Though I will never forgive him for supporting the Rethuglican CR earlier this year. Disgraceful. Never give fascists an inch! There’s no “both sides” argument there.

"Hating the other side" is not a party platform. Democratic leadership is weak. Schumer and Pelosi need to go. Democrats need a message beyond restoring abortion and trans rights. People vote with their wallet. This fight is far from won on Sept 2026 is long way from now.

I wish Texas, Florida, Maine, and more would put Dems in. I want it to be like 1930 and 1932 where the GOP lost over 100 House seats and over ten Senate seats. Why can't people in the South actually vote in better interests. I know the racism looks fun, but rural folk don't benefit.
