The Democrat Party is no longer the centrist institution of the past, and because of that, the midterms will be unlike any in recent memory.
Donald Trump’s path to victory for the GOP in 2026 is clear: sustain a growing economy while facing opposition determined to stall it. Victor Davis Hanson explains how the Left’s strategy seeks to slow momentum before voters can see the full recovery and what steps the Trump administration needs to take to fight back on this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”
“ Donald Trump is in a race to get the message out that the economy is much better than the Biden economy. It's going to get much better. And don't believe the media because the media, like the Democratic shutdown, like the Federal Reserve, this artificial efforts to keep interest rates high are politically motivated. But if everything works out the way that he had planned and he does the right thing, right around midterm time, the economy's gonna take off.”

Last week, New York City elected Zohran Mamdani to be its next mayor. And while he claims to be a democratic socialist, the dangerous ideas he champions make him out to be more of a communist than anything.
How will this fare for New York City—the financial capital of the world? And what exactly is it about socialism that doesn’t work, as history has taught us time and time again? Victor Davis Hanson breaks it all down on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In A Few Words.”
“ Socialism destroys private initiative. If you think the harder you work, the better ideas you have, the more efficiency you can create in your business or in your own life but you're not going to be compensated more than someone who does not either show those traits or doesn't want to show those traits or just simply says, ‘Live and let live. I just wanna stay in my house, watch TV, and get pizza,’ and he will get the same amount as you do, in terms of cars or housing or federal supplements—it doesn't work.”

Tucker Carlson’s interview with controversial right-wing podcaster Nick Fuentes has snowballed into a bigger conversation that has everyone asking: Does the Right have a serious issue with antisemitism?
Victor Davis Hanson explains how conservative icons like William F. Buckley once handled extremists, contrasts that with today’s platforms, and explores why some on the right are now flirting with the same rhetoric on Israel that echoes left-wing sentiments. How should the conservative movement handle this divide? Hanson breaks it down on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
“I think the reason for the rise of antisemitism is an element, the isolationist base of the MAGA movement, felt that it was the driving force and that it was going to be isolationist and we were not going to get involved in the Middle East. And they were very suspicious of so-called, what they call neocons and what they call Christian Zionists. As Tucker said, he hates Christian Zionists over any other people. Even bin Laden? Al-Qaeda? ISIS? I don't know. But they were losing influence. Donald Trump proved that he is not a neoisolation. He's a Jacksonian. Targeted strikes to preserve and enhance U.S. deterrents.”

Last month, former Democrat Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi suggested that local and state authorities in California, a sanctuary state, could arrest federal agents for enforcing federal immigration law, saying that while “the president may enjoy absolute immunity courtesy of his rogue Supreme Court, those who operate under his orders do not.”
The former speaker, as well as other mayors and governors who see fit to nullify federal law, should take a moment and reread the supremacy clause of the U.S. Constitution, which “details that local state authorities are subject to treaties and the laws that the federal government makes. And, therefore, pursuant to those laws, they are subordinate,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
“We know in 1961-63, we had another attempt to nullify the supremacy clause. Southern governors in Mississippi and Arkansas and Alabama said, 'Federal law does not apply here. The Supreme Court ruling does not apply here. In our opinion, we can run our schools the way local people want. And we're gonna resist you.' The Eisenhower, and then later the Kennedy administration, said, 'No, you're not. We have the federal government's military, and we can federalize and hold you in contempt and arrest you because of the supremacy clause.'"
