You would think this might have been a learning experience. Not for the Democratic establishment, whose members quickly scrambled to blame — what else? — the progressive left for their own failure, spent the months since thinking their comeback lay in posturing as socially conservative or trying to bankroll podcasters, and have been soothing themselves that they will win the 2026 midterms by default, even if they’re loathed by voters.

Schumer believing they already have a majority cinched going into 2026 is insane.
