right now the wind is at our backs

but I do not believe these folks will fade quietly into the night

In fact some of those high ranking resignations, could prove problematic as they position themselves to overtake the old democrat guards.

Turnabout is fair play. It’s why congress needs to get off its arse and lock MAGA in legislatively.

Is there a way we can encourage them to do that?

right now they seem just fine sitting on the sidelines.

Democrats have been using government jobs to pay Democrat activists…. Its better they are on the outside rather than on the inside

This is a theory. Maybe, but most likely not. One must always be on guard for the unintended consequences. But this is a little on the order of fear mongering.

Massive corruption is being exposed. Trump’s second election was won based on his performance of his first. His current term will be better. He’s not been in even a month and he has them all on the run, the judicial crooks are fighting him and his popularity is not fading. The amount of graft, once brought into line will balance the budget.

Sorry, I just don’t like negative thinking.

Most of the folks being laid off/fired were hired because of DEI.

In other words—they are incompetent and their fancy looking resumes are a mirage.

Political organizations who have DEI volunteers are doomed.

I am sorry if you feel it is negative thinking, it was meant to realize there will be some sort of blowback. Maybe not today or next week, but we do need to keep control of the Congress in 2026.

I am willing to risk it (because how often have any future prediction come true?)

What the author described is what Bill Clinton achieved in 1992, assisted by Ross Perot's populist Presidential candidacy. The Boomers and late Silent Generation Democrats overtook the aging Greatest/GI Generation era politicians. Clinton flooded the zone with 30 and 40-something appointees and elected officials. Please note that many of the same people hung on through the younger Bush and Trump I administrations, finding employment in prestige law firms and NGOs before and after Obama and before Biden. The Boomers are fading away and in the case of the Democratic incumbents in the Michigan and Minnesota Senate seats, they were probably strongly encouraged not to run in 2026. These are relatively safe Democrat seats, so it looks like newer, Millennial faces are wanted. Also,Democrats must deemphasize the social issues and focus on the economy, which Clinton did in 1992. Remember the line, it's the economy, stupid.

The key to the democrats successes over the past fifty years has been truckloads of government largesse. Democrats think nothing of form a quick NGO gets funded by some obscure shady government agency to pay ‘community organizers’ and ‘activists’ for their services. The goal is to dry up these funds and force the democrats to pay for their own treasonous activities.

The first thing to do is stop referring to these people as democrats, democratic, they are communists. Totalitarian dictators. Know your enemy.

A combination of exposing all this corruption, slimming down the fed gov is very popular. Based on the news I’ve watched the amount of corrupt spending uncovered is enough to balance the budget. I have faith the economy will be much better come 2026. The only way we could lose the House or Senate would be via mass voter fraud. And by that time Trump will have a handle on that fraud too.

I see massive gains in Congress. We won’t have to worry about what the Collins/Murkowski types do.

And of course the communist democrats will launch a counter assault. The rat party is a house of cards, it’s falling apart. Their counter assault cannot be enough to turn the massive tide Trump has going.

Their only real option is with physical force. They’ve tried an assassination twice; three or four more times is certainly not out of the question. They are communists and communists do use violence to achieve their objectives all the time. To me that’s more worrisome than the 2026 elections.

Caesar: don’t encircle and crush the Gauls - they might get mad and reform.

Nonsense.

The dems were already at peak fury and hate, except they had all the levers of power, and pulled out all the stops. Trump et al are taking away their means to fight, let them get mad. Enemies do stupid things in anger.

Keep smashing, and smash some more. Demoralize, expose and bankrupt to highest degree possible.

Exactly, to reason that destroying your enemy and the tools they use for evil might somehow make your enemy so man they will come back stronger is utter foolishness.

Timid heart not truly invested in the MAGA movement. Such pearl clutching cowards only serve to poison the people who need encouragement the most.

They won’t fade quietly, but if they think a winning strategy is to say “look at the poor govt workers being laid off “ will work, I say go for it.

The real problem for the dims is their policies, but even more with usaid and other government agencies exposed for their corruption, criminality, and money laundering schemes the power and money have been cut off.

The more they scream about the fact that someone is exposing this and not about what is being exposed the worse they look.

Without the constant flow of millions in grift their armies of paid “protesters” will disappear, their media butt buddies will dry up, and their power will fade

Their machine’s money supply just got throttled and the legacy media mouthpieces are loud yet largely mocked and irrelevant.

They won’t spend their own money.

DOGE is their kryptonite.
