"There’s no way they [US troops] can enter Venezuela."

"I don't think the USA is going to invade Venezuela."

The Trump administration "has shown no signs so far of clear intent for direct military action."

"No one in their right mind thinks that with 4,500 people you can invade a country that's got mountains, jungle and multiple urban centers."

"It appears as if Mr. Peace President is looking into invading Venezuela under the pretext that the whole country is an illegal drug cartel and Maduro is a fugitive and an illegitimate president."

"It is my belief the United States will invade and Occupy Venezuela by Jan 2026."

"It [2026 Midterms]'s going to be dominated by what party is making you safe and prosperous. It's not going to be dominated by subsidies [Trump's presidential actions]. It's going to be dominated by the big stuff."

“A chunk of [GOP voters] who put them in power in 2024 are Trump-specific voters; they will vote GOP down ballot when Trump is running but won’t turn out to vote for a typical congressman in a midterm when Trump isn’t running.”

"As we have seen, the president’s party almost always loses ground in the midterm election following his victory... [but] if Republicans are to have a serious chance of retaining control of the House, President Trump will have to improve his job approval significantly."

"If legal immigrants begin to be deported without having committed any crime [by Trump admin], get ready for Republicans to lose the [2026] midterms by a landslide."

“The President will help his Republican friends on Capitol Hill get reelected [in 2026 Midterms], and work to pick up new seats across the country.”

"President Trump is the main event for the party [2026 midterms]."

"Republicans have reason to worry that the president’s political decline will affect their performance in next year [2026]’s midterm elections."

“All these people that he [Trump] helps — he doesn’t help everybody — but for those he does, he’s a difference maker, and he’s certainly a turnout machine.”

"Whether congressional GOPers can turn things around for the ‘26 midterms is more dependent on Trump than ever."

“All of the kinds of things [Trump's] doing now will result in him losing—certainly losing the House of Representatives."

"The success or failure of the Grand Old Party (GOP) next year [2026 US Midterms] will be decided on the strength or weakness of President Trump’s coattails."

"What’s crazy is that the 2026 midterms are entirely in Trump’s control."

"I’m very, very bullish about the midterms. I know that we are going to win because we have a great record to run on"

"[MAGA voters] will need to show up at the ballot box; President Trump and Republicans are going to make that happen.”

"If this story is properly told, we should win the Midterm Elections in RECORD NUMBERS."

"[Trump voters] won’t turn out to vote for a typical congressman in a midterm when Trump isn’t running."

“If we [GOP] are where we are today in the beginning of the second quarter [of 2026], then I think we’re in for a really rough time in November.”

“If we fail to pass legislation that permanently secures the border, addresses the affordability crisis, improves healthcare, and restores law and order, we [GOP] will lose this majority.”

“Our best shot was the first 6-9 months. And when Republicans likely lose the midterms it will become total and complete political war and gridlock once again.”

"I think we will win them back, probably all of them, maybe more, in this election, and Hakeem Jeffries will be the speaker of the House."

“He’s going to definitely deal with a Democratic House. I think it’s more likely that he’ll be dealing with a Democratic Senate.”

"Next [2026] year when we will take back control of the House of Representatives."

Will the Republicans Lose Control of Either Houses of Congress in the 2026 U.S. Midterm Elections?

President Donald Trump delivered a prime-time address to the nation on Wednesday evening from the White House Diplomatic Room. The roughly 18-minute address was carried live and focused on domestic priorities rather than foreign policy matters.

Trump argued that his administration inherited economic challenges from the previous administration and is working to reverse them. He stated "Eleven months ago, I inherited a mess and I'm fixing it" and claimed his administration is "bringing our economy back from the brink of ruin."

The president devoted much of his speech to discussing what he called the largest tax cuts in American history. He said families could save between $11,000 and $20,000 a year and predicted a record tax refund season next spring.

Trump made no mention of Venezuela during his address, despite speculation that rising tensions would factor into his remarks. This came one day after he announced a blockade on sanctioned oil tankers going to and from Venezuela.

Tucker Carlson claimed in a Wednesday interview that a member of Congress told him lawmakers were briefed that war is coming and would be announced during Trump's address. However, Axios's Marc Caputo, who is well-sourced inside the Trump White House, said his sources indicated this wasn't briefed.

The House voted down two measures on Wednesday that would have required Trump to seek congressional authorization for strikes on alleged drug boats and Venezuelan land. The votes were 216-210 and 213-211 respectively, with Republicans largely rallying around the White House position.
