History has taught us that this is precisely when Donald Trump is most dangerous — and when Republicans turn to voter suppression, election subversion and worse. With the 2026 midterm elections less than a year away, Trump is already plotting his next moves.

From Virginia up to Maine, New Jersey out to California, and plenty of places in between, Tuesday was a great night for democracy — and an awful night for President Donald Trump. Democracy Docket loved tracking every win — and explaining what it all amounted to. But we did a lot else this week, too.

Populist Dems won. Moderate Dems won. We won in blue states. We won in purple states.
Maybe the take is that (a) people think Trump is out of control; and (b) people like Dems when we're taking a stand and fighting for what we believe in - as we have been for the last month.
