Midterms 2026

Trump vs. the Midterms

He’ll tell you how the midterms went. We’ll show you the tape. Every clip here comes from an official upload, starting just before he speaks. Any fraud or rigging claim is labelled as his claim and set next to the official record. A race counts as won or lost only once AP has called it, and every call is linked. If a network has called a race and AP hasn’t, we say so. We don’t run vote counts or projections of our own. Newest first.
