Susie Wiles: Ahead of midterms, Turnip is "going to campaign like it's 2024 again." LOL. Yes, do!

'“Typically, in the midterms, it’s not about who’s sitting at the White House. You localize the election, and you keep the federal officials out of it. We’re actually gonna turn that on its head and put him on the ballot because so many of those low propensity voters are Trump voters,” Wiles said in an interview with The Mom View.

“We saw a week ago Tuesday what happens when he’s not on the ballot and not active,” she continued. “I haven’t quite broken it to him yet, but he’s going to campaign like it’s 2024 again.”'

This is a brilliant strategy Susie. By all means please proceed.

Maybe she's forgotten what his winning 2024 campaign message actually was--an interesting detail since she ran his campaign.

The thing that seems to have resonated more with voters than any of his other truly horrendous messages and promises--because it would seem most people either did not pay attention to or thought he was lying about all of the worst things he is now doing--was blaming the people in power for the high prices they were experiencing.

And now not only are those prices even higher due to his tariff and anti-immigrant policies--something that polling shows has not escaped even his own voters' notice--but healthcare and other necessities are set to skyrocket.

Add to that his "performance" in Pennsylvania last night, and Democrats may just decide to invite him to speak at their own events next year.

There is always a period of time where an incoming administration can blame the last one for their inability to affect change, but that time is already in the past--especially considering the massive change in policy that the "Liberation Day" tariffs ushered in. By the fall of 2026 when most of the voters that are in play will start to pay attention, the economy and everything else is going to be solidly owned by The Wizard of Snooze.

There are always events that could change things. And the Administration could just throw up their hands and say, "put everything back like it was before we screwed it up!" That feels highly unlikely though.

So yes, Susie, I beg you: please spend your and his time and ever-diminishing energy reminding people every day who is to blame for the economic pain they are feeling in addition to just how big of a jerk he is.

What could go right?
