Republicans Got Wiped Out. Now What?
Summary
Tim Rice and Daily Wire managing editor Dylan Hausman analyze the historic Republican losses in the midterm elections, attributing the defeat to a combination of the Iran war, tariffs, and corruption rather than a single cause. They discuss the long-term implications for the GOP, arguing that the "post-MAGA" transition is now inevitable and may ultimately benefit the party by forcing a necessary reset.
