Does the MAGA rank and file know Trump is anti free markets? And the democrats are going to lose the 2026 midterms if they keep whining about Trump.

 

So let’s start with the first question. Trump is anti free market. It is plain and simple. And it is not when he says buy a certain computer or product and doesn’t promote everything. That is just Trump being Trump or possibly being unethical, a question for another day.

When Trump supports industries in general over other industries or when he uses the power of the government to have negative affects on an industry that is anti free market. Any time a new industry sprouts up or new ideas are created the markets are to determine if it is going to be successful. The government should play no part and specifically the President creating obstacles for that industry or idea to succeed is anti free market.

New industries and ideas are what made our economic engine explode for the last 150 years. The government or any person in power in the government has no business to stifle innovation. This causes loss of thousands of jobs and millions maybe billions in today’s world in investments lost to the economy.  Trump should have no say in what we invest in, what we develop so the consumer has more choices which drives down prices. Also new businesses help more wealth creation for more people instead of supporting only established industries and consolidating wealth. If a new business is not successful, so be it, but the President shouldn’t be deciding what businesses we can invest in or products to buy.

 

And one reason Trump beat Harris was because he kept saying he had answers. Sure it was just him talking, no real substance to anything he promised, yet he said he was going to do something. People want to hear positive, not whining. So much of the secondary news podcasts and other avenues are just whining about Trump and saying you need to vote democrat, yet offering no solutions to the current issues facing everyday Americans. And I am not hearing anything of substance from the democratic party.  They are going to crash and burn again just like in 2024 if they don’t start changing their tune and offering something people feel offers them an opportunity or hope things will get better. Their messaging needs to change because Trump isn’t on the ballot and most people are ticked off at Congress whether Republican or Democrat. If they want to win, they need to be positive, hopeful, strong and offer solutions. And secondarily realize whether they like it or not, most everyday Americans lean center to center right. And yes democrats they really do land in the center, no matter how much you scream democratic socialism is the answer. That won’t fly far with most of us. Again whether you like it or not you need to center your tune.

 

Cheers
