The 2026 election will become a simple choice. Do Americans want the Donald J. Trump Boom or the Democrats’ Gloom?
If you back out of the daily flood of stories about gossip, maneuvering, and supposed crises of the day, a huge pattern is building which will only become more evident.
By July 2026, the pattern will be a huge Trump-Republican economic boom. The Democrats will be mired gloom and trying to drag Americans down with them.
Amazingly, we are seeing a mirror image repeat of the historic pattern which led President Franklin D. Roosevelt to crush the Republican Party, grow a massive majority Democratic Party, and establish a pattern of government and politics which has lasted from 1933 to today.
In the Roosevelt majority building process, the President was dynamic, aggressive, experimental, optimistic, inclusive, and constantly thinking and talking about a better American future. At the same time, Roosevelt was defining the Republican Party as a party of failure, privilege, and elitism which led most Americans to conclude they could not be Republicans.
The Republicans were stunned, enraged, and impotent when faced with President Roosevelt and his interventionist New Deal. Republicans rapidly became the party of voting “no,” making shrill negative attacks, and opposing virtually everything Roosevelt did to create a better future.
This resulted in crushing defeats for Republicans in 1932, 1934, and 1936. In fact, House Republicans were so badly beaten by the contrast, they did not re-elect a majority between 1928 and 1996. It was a period of 68 years of absolute Democratic dominance in the House.
The mirror image pattern is building in politics and government now.
President Trump and the Republicans are on offense working to solve dozens of problems. They are creating economic growth, cutting taxes and regulations, and working to make America more affordable. Their Democratic Party opponents are on defense on almost every front. They are increasingly negative and desperate.
