warner is probably terrified of facing youngkin in a general (which, he shouldn't be) but i think he ought to be more worried about a primary challenge fueled by an absolutely furious virginia democratic electorate
Mark Warner on Republicans: "I do think we're getting close to them stepping up, but the problem is going to be, how much structural damage is going to be done before my Republican friends find their voice and voice publicly what they're already saying privately?"

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care?

It’s a phenomenon we saw with Biden. Once people soured on the economy, they started hating Biden’s handling on every single issue.
It was foolish for democrats to cozy up to Trump’s anti immigration sentiment hoping to split the baby. Cowardly and foolish. Shame on them.

I have added an updating average of Trump's approval rating on key issues to the Strength In Numbers data portal. Today it shows Trump has gone negative on his handling of immigration. POTUS is now underwater on every major issue
