#783: Trump Is Throwing The Midterms with Mark Mitchell

Former Rasmussen pollster Mark Mitchell breaks down why Trump’s Iran pivot is tanking his populist coalition ahead of the 2026 midterms. The Honest Poll founder exposes rigged polling, GOP donor capture, ballooning deficits, and a housing market on the brink. They dig into Bitcoin as an escape hatch from fiat failure, why Gen Z is flirting with socialism, and how corporate fascism is eating the economy. With interest expense overtaking defense and Democrats poised for a House sweep, Mitchell argues the establishment is failing on every front—from antitrust grift to unchecked mail-in ballot harvesting.
