"Kilmeade acknowledged that the out-of-power party had many clear blind spots, but claimed that their efforts in state legislatures in the past year have shown they're doing something right. No matter everything you said about land grabs, and Indians who really belong with this land, and all the stuff, the Democrats have flipped twenty-five state legislative seats, and the Republicans have flipped zero, said Kilmeade."
"As much as they are whining with pronouns, Republicans have to find a way to communicate that they are the better way, said Kilmeade. And they've got about seven or eight months to do it, because that group, as misguided as they seem and act, seems to be on a roll, which astounds me to say, but the numbers don't lie."
"Fellow Fox News host Laura Ingraham issued her own grim assessment of next year's midterm elections for Republicans, telling viewers in November of last year that the midterms right now look ugly, unless the Republicans really get serious. Republican heavyweights like Karl Rove and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) have also warned of difficult terrain, and even President Trump seemed to be preparing Republicans for the possibility of failure."
Democrats have gained momentum since President Donald Trump took office, flipping twenty-five state legislative seats while Republicans flipped none. Republican strategists face pressure to refine messaging to convince voters that the GOP offers the better path. Voter shifts at the state level over the past year indicate organized Democratic efforts in key races. Conservatives and Republican leaders have publicly cautioned that next year's midterm contests could be difficult without improved strategy. Historical patterns show sitting presidents often lose seats in midterm elections, increasing GOP vulnerability. Party operatives have roughly seven to eight months to adjust messaging and campaign tactics before the midterms.
