Trump's Actions: A Gift for Democrats in 2026?

In a surprising turn of events, President Trump has handed Democrats a potential campaign ad on a silver platter. This comes after he pardoned rioters involved in the January 6th Capitol attack and even invited some of them to the White House. CNN's John King points out that this move could be exploited by Democrats to target "vulnerable House Republicans" in the 2026 elections. Trump's latest actions show that he feels empowered after his recent electoral victories. He appears to be doing things his way, regardless of what other party leaders think. For instance, he pardoned someone involved in dark web crimes because influential figures like Elon Musk encouraged him. This raises questions about Trump's judgments and whether vulnerable Republicans will support him unconditionally. King also highlights the challenge: will voters tolerate Trump's decisions if they see benefits like lower prices and better border enforcement? It's a tricky situation for Republicans who might already be feeling uneasy about Trump's early moves.
