Episode 186 — WE TOLD YOU SO! The 2026 Backlash Against The GOP: America First Reckoning w/GUESTS!
Show notes
WE TOLD YOU SO.
For years on The Backlash, we warned that you cannot campaign on AMERICA FIRST, drag the country into another Middle East war, and expect Americans to ignore what’s happening to their own families.
People want to afford a home. Raise their children. Build a future. They want leaders who put their country first—and who actually mean it.
After last night’s election, the excuses are wearing thin. Even J.D. Vance is now pointing to the war as a reason Republicans lost.
Funny how the warnings become acceptable once the damage is done.
On Episode 186 of The Backlash, Alex Dwyer, Stephen Kokx, and some other special guests join me to break down the results, revisit what we’ve been saying for years, and talk about where the Right goes from here.
Yes, we’re taking a victory lap. Yes, we’re bringing the receipts.
But we also need to talk about ACTION: holding leaders accountable, getting organized locally, and building the political influence necessary to change course.
Tune in for the election postmortem you knew was coming.
