Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the Democrats’ dominating victories in Virginia and New Jersey, where early returns and strong turnout have analysts like Harry Enten and Dave Wasserman predicting Democrats could be favored to retake the House in 2026. They unpack how the results exposed cracks in the GOP coalition, with MAGA influencers blaming “weak” Republican candidates and moderates pointing to Trump’s shutdown chaos and record-low approval rating of -18%. Kander and Gupta also examine how Democratic leaders from Gavin Newsom to Bill Ferguson framed the victories as proof that competence and optimism still win, even as Republicans melted down online over their losses. Plus, they analyze the high-stakes Supreme Court case that could unravel Trump’s global tariffs, what it means for the U.S. economy, and how it fits into a broader crisis of Trump’s leadership.
