Only the Republican Party could lose a Midterm election so horrifically and decide the best strategy is to lean in even harder to literally everything that cost them Congress.

Trump thinks he's got a ticket to heaven. We've got some bad news for him. Trump: "Well I'm a religious person. So in theory I go to heaven."

Asked about his net worth jumping $3 billion, Trump told Ross Douthat everyone's went up too. Struggling to pay rent? You should've owned stock, apparently. Donald Trump: "Well, so did everyone."

Trump claimed no U.S. soldiers have been lost, then said moments later that 18 soldiers have died across the wars in Iran and Venezuela. Hundreds more have been wounded. Trump: "Again, we haven't lost anybody. No soldiers have been lost."

Pete Hegseth has won zero wars. But that's Trump's whole case for why Democrats shouldn't impeach him: Trump: "So when you say about Pete Hegseth, I mean, he's guilty of two things, basically winning two wars."

Texas sent a Democrat to the Senate, and last night James Talarico took his victory lap on SNL with working people in mind James Talarico: "But I think, Mr. President, if we can work together, we can make life better for everyday Americans."

Now that the shoe is on the other foot, Donald Trump's personal lawyer turned weaponizer of the DOJ, Todd Blanche, is CRASHING OUT!

Even Republicans are done covering for Pete Hegseth. GOP Rep. French Hill won't rule out backing Hegseth's impeachment, and says he's not satisfied with how the Iran war has been run. Our troops deserve better.

I didn't even realize Best Buy had a store in Cancun. Voters are sick of these idiotic Republican lies, but keep it up, and we'll be waiting for your re-election.

Leavitt swears plenty of qualified people want her job. Because this White House is so famous for vetting qualified people, right? Karoline Leavitt: "There's a lot of qualified people who want the job and have been calling him and, you know, calling me for it."

Trump's own team says he saw the midterm losses coming. If he knew voters were turning on him, that's an admission he failed as a leader. Karoline Leavitt: "I think he knew this was probably the likely outcome. He tried anyway."

Democrats just won the midterms and Donald Trump shrugged like a guy who's already packed his bags. Welcome to his lame duck era Donald Trump: "presidents always lose them. I don't know why they lose them all the time. There are a lot bigger losses than this."

Jason Chaffetz says if you don't like AI, give up your phone, TV and car. Newsflash: none of those needed AI a year ago, and they still don't. Jason Chaffetz: "if you're a purist, go ahead, put down your phone, stop watching your television, don't drive a car."

Trump says he could stop calling Democrats names for six months to get a deal done. We don't think he could make it more than a couple of days. "If it took six months of not insulting the Democrats to get a deal done, do you think you could do it?" Trump: Very easily.

Voters punished Republicans, and Ron Johnson blames "the swamp." They still don't get it. Sen. Ron Johnson: "What I think happened in these elections is we were expecting, our supporters were expecting us to drain the swamp, but it seems like the swamp won."
