Here we go.

Several months ago, I predicted something like this would happen. Trump is historically unpopular with Independents. We’ve seen this twice before when George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush neglected the economy in favor of launching glorious wars in the Middle East. Poppy Bush won a decisive victory in the Gulf War. W. eventually fought his way out of the quagmire in Iraq. Trump simply suffered a humiliating defeat in a war with Iran which was never popular or sold to the public.

New York Post:

“Conservative podcaster Tucker Carlson intends to start a new political party after disavowing President Trump and the Republican Party over the Iran war. 

“I’m going to help build a third party,” Carlson said in an interview with the Columbia Journalism Review published Wednesday. “There should be a good-faith effort to figure out what benefits the country.”

The former Fox News host argued that when it comes to the two issues he views as most consequential for Americans – “war and finance” – Democrats and Republicans “are in lockstep solidarity with each other.”

“That’s not a democracy,” he said. “That’s a one-party state posing as a democracy, and it needs to be broken, and there’s going to be a third party, and I’m going to do everything I can to bring that about.” …”

What happens now?

If history is our guide, we would predict that Republicans will show up and vote for Republican candidates in the midterms like they do in every election whether they win or lose. Disgusted rightwing Independents, however, will probably bolt the GOP and vote for protest candidates like Ross Perot or disengage and park somewhere like the Constitution Party or Libertarian Party. The last two Republican presidents blew up their coalitions and the hangover haunted the GOP for a decade.

I believe the 2026 midterms will play out like the 2006 midterms. It will foreshadow a big defeat in the 2028 presidential race. We’re on track to repeat the Obama years with a Democratic president and Congress and a Republican candidate getting crushed like John McCain. McCain wanted to bomb Iran and he didn’t even get that far before losing Indiana, Iowa, North Carolina, Ohio and Florida. Virginia was lost permanently to Democrats and hasn’t voted for a Republican president since 2004.

Note: If memory serves, Obama won over a considerable number of Bush voters in 2008 because he ran as the antiwar candidate against the Iraq War.
