ETTD: Everything Trump Touches Dies, and Tuesday Proved it. Rick Wilson on the Blue Tsunami 🌊🗳️🔥

Podcast cover

The Lincoln Project

The recent election cycle marks a historic, unprecedented rejection of Donald Trump and the MAGA movement, validating the principle that everything Trump touches dies. Across deep-red strongholds like Texas and Ohio, Republican candidates—even those attempting to distance themselves from Trumpism—suffered decisive losses, signaling a fundamental shift in voter priorities toward economic stability and effective governance. Billionaire-funded efforts to sustain Trump-aligned figures, including Ken Paxton and Susan Collins, failed to overcome the widespread repudiation of the current political status quo. While the MAGA infrastructure remains financially potent and will likely attempt to regroup for 2028, the current electoral results demonstrate that the movement’s grip on the electorate has fractured. Voters are actively rejecting the corruption and performative politics associated with Trump, choosing instead to hold the Republican Party accountable for its systemic failures and subservience to a singular, increasingly isolated leader.
