Victor Davis Hanson argues that Republicans squandered their advantages in the 2026 midterms through weak candidates, disastrous messaging, and bitter divisions within the MAGA movement—not simply because voters rejected Trump's agenda.

With Democrats flipping Texas and capturing Congress, Hanson warns that the GOP must unite behind Trump's policies, resolve the Iran war, and confront the Democrat Party's growing socialist wing before the 2028 presidential election.
