5 ways this GOP wipeout just keeps getting bigger by the day

People are talking about a blue wave. They're  talking about a blue tsunami. But I'm here. to tell you that what Democrats did in the 2026  elections was even bigger and more historic than. you could possibly imagine. Why do I say that?  Because get this, this Democratic win was a once. in 28-year event. Why do I say that? Because,  get this, this is the first time in the 21st. century that Democrats won Senate seats in any of  these states. Kansas, they hadn't won since 1932. How about Mississippi? They are currently  Scott Cologne currently leading in a state.

that Democrats haven't captured since 1982 in  John Stennis. South Carolina, that's our once in. 28-year event. They haven't won there since 1998  in Fritz Hollings and of course in Texas where. James Talerico became the first Democrat to win a  Senate seat since 1988 and Lloyd Benson. You know. what also happened in 1998? Well, I'll tell you  what happened in 1998. this one in 28-year event. Get this. Seinfeld Seinfeld went adios amigos.  Goodbye. See you later. The gang of four decided.

to get off the airs back in 1998. And Google  Google, which basically took this and made it. into a nata, a landline. Google was first founded  in 1998. Now, if you think this is big, and it. truly is historic in terms of Democrats winning in  any of those southern Senate seats, it's actually. bigger than you could possibly imagine. I mean,  look at this. Actually, this Democratic win is a.

once- in 52-year event. We haven't seen anything  like it in 52 years. Why do I say that? Because, get this. Guess where the House vote currently  is. You got to go all the way back to the days. of Watergate. The Democrats are currently leading  in the US House vote nationally by 14 points. That. has not happened since 1974. Since 1974. Now, I  know what you're saying. Some of you are like, "I wasn't alive in 1974." Well, you know what also  happened in 1974. Look at this. The Godfather Part.

Two, your Oscarinning film that premiered back in  1974. and Henry Aaron hammering Hank deth thrown. Babe Ruth, George Herman Ruth as the all-time home  run leader. Hank Aaron was up there and he swung. and hit that 700th and 15th home run in Atlanta,  Georgia and Fulton County Stadium. Now, this would. be amazing on its own, right? A once in 52-year  event. But I'm here to tell you it actually gets.

even more historic than that. Get this. This  is a Democratic win that is only happening once. every 68 years. Why do I say that? Because, get  this, Democrats currently lead in enough states. to flip 9999 Senate seats. And that would in  fact be their biggest net gain since 1958, the days of Dwight David Eisenhower, which also  was the time in which the Brooklyn Dodgers waved.

adios amigos goodbye to the burrow that is across  the river from here here in Manhattan. And they. moved out to Los Angeles, California, the city  of angels. They moved out to LA. And of course, they've been there now for what feels like  forever. And it really has been forever, right? It has been forever. And that's what makes  this democratic way so historic. And how about the. hula hoop? The hula hoop, which was a big part  of all of our childhoods. That was only invented.

back in 1958. Now, the fact that we're talking  about the hula hoop, that's absolutely amazing, right? That's absolutely incredible. But it  actually gets more historic than that. It. gets more historic than that. What we're actually  talking about here is a 1 in78-year event. A 1 in. 78-year event. That's what we're talking about.  We are talking about something that happens only. once in 78 years. Why do I say that? Because for  the first time since 1948, Democrats are likely.

to flip 42 House seats, at least 42 House seats,  and flip the chamber at the exact same time. So, they came into the 2026 election holding no power  in the House. And now, not only are they going. to have power in the House, but they're going to  have a slew of power in the House. It's like they. went from having snake eye to now holding the six  and rolling it down the aisle. That's what we're.

talking about now. I was not alive back in 1948.  I know. I know I come across as an elderly man, but I wasn't alive back then. So, I had to look  it up. back in 1948. You know what was also. happening? The Polaroid camera. The Polaroid  camera premiered in 1948. Boy, that is a fun. looking Polaroid camera, let me tell you. And you  know what also premiered in 1948? NASCAR. NASCAR, which is now, of course, such a cultural  phenomenon that only premiered back in 1948. Now,

I know what you're thinking. I know what you're  thinking. That's amazing. That's amazing. That's. how far back in the record books we could go. But  you know what? We can go back even further. This. Democratic wave was even bigger. I mean, this is  one that really is, in my mind, number one for. Democrats. Number one for Democrats, that's  what we're talking about. A nice big one as. I fold the thumb behind me. Number one. And why  do I say that? Because you know what? Actually, the last time that this has happened for Democrats  is never. It's never happened before. Never.

ever ever ever happened before. at least since  senators were popularly elected. Because get this, this looks to be the first time since senators  were at least popularly elected in which a party. won not one, not two, not three, not four,  but five Senate seats that the other party. had won in at least the last 10 prior presidential  elections. Of course, we're talking about Alaska, where Mary Pollah currently holds a lead. We're  talking about South Carolina and Annie Andrews.

We are talking about Texas and James Talerico. We  are talking about Kansas and Adam Adam Hamilton. And of course, we are talking about Mississippi  and Scott Cologne. And you know what? That's not. the only thing that's never happened before. At  least in terms of the United States Senate. This. is the first time ever in the United States Senate  that Democrats carried Kansas and Maine in the. exact same year. It's never happened. It's never  happened. It's never happened at all. I mean,

these numbers are just downright scary, scary,  scary for Republicans. That's what we're talking. about here. And you know what? I can't actually  put a never, a never on the screen. But of course, senators, the first big election which senators  were popularly elected across the nation was 1914. And you know what also happened in 1914? That was  when World War I started. It was when World War I. started. And it is when we really started seeing  the implementation of the 8-hour workday which of.

course 9 to5 as Dolly Pardon liked to say this  is when it actually got started with Henry Ford. all the way over in the great state of Michigan.  Now this would be a lot. It's a lot I tell you. this but I am always a fan of bonus time. It's a  bonus time. It's bonus time for you and me coming. together. D boom. Because we've hit the House  and we've hit the Senate. But you know what? We.

haven't gotten cool. We haven't gotten cool and  down with the gouves. We haven't gotten cooling. down with the gouves because you know what? We're  talking Bill Clinton. We're talking playing the. saxophone back in 1992 with our cine hall. That's  what we're talking about here. And you know. what? When it comes to governors, Democrats look  likely to pick up and hold pick up or hold airgo. control or leading in 30 30 governorships. 30  governorships and that would be the most after an.

election since 1992. And of course, Bill Clinton  was elected president for the first time. Now, 1992, there are some people currently on this  newsroom who are not alive back in 1992. So, you know what I always like to say? I always like  to say, you know what? I'm a cool cat. I'm a cool. cat. I'm going to make sure I'm going to make  sure that those cool cats know what was going. on back in 1992. You know what's going back on  in 1992? The dream team. It takes a team to make.

a dream. That's what we're talking about. And  of course, the US Olympics. Look, it's Michael. Jordan and Magic Johnson. And of course, Silence  of the Lambs. Silence of the Lambs. Of course, won the Oscar back in 1992. You know what? I I I  think in that movie I I I prefer Jodie Foster to. uh Anthony Hopkins because, you know, I'm  always a fan of the good guys in the films. I'm a fan of the good guys in the films. So,  the bottom line is this. This Democratic wave. was one that was truly one in which Democrats  pointed to the bleachers, took their shot,

hit that home run, and the Republican party,  well, they ended up being a giant turkey. All right.
