The November 3, 2026, midterm elections brought an earthquake upon the Republican Party and America. The shock was not merely the scale of the Republican defeat or the party’s loss of states that had been Republican strongholds for decades, such as Texas, Kansas, South Carolina, Maine, and Mississippi. Far more dangerous was the massive breakthrough achieved by the Red-Green alliance in these elections.
Much has been said about the reasons behind the Republicans’ failure in these elections. But the most important point is that what happened was a punishment vote against Trumpism. The same thing happened to Obamaism in the 2010 elections, when Democrats lost seven seats in the Senate and 63 seats in the House of Representatives following the emergence of the Tea Party movement in 2009 as a reaction against Obamaism.
What happened in 2024 was also a punishment vote against the Democrats’ vindictive policies toward Trump. They attempted to impeach him twice during his first term, then pursued him through the courts after he left office, followed by media and political incitement against him that led to several assassination attempts. Of course, voters were also reacting against Democratic policies of opening the borders to illegal immigration, attempting to transform America’s traditional system of values, and reshaping identity politics.
Obama’s policies gave rise to the Tea Party movement. Biden’s policies on identity and values led to the growing influence of the MAGA movement within the Republican Party. And Trump’s policies have now led to the powerful emergence of the far left, allied with Muslims, within the Democratic Party.
But there is another important reason: the decline in evangelical voter participation. Evangelicals, the Republican Party’s primary support base, saw their share of the electorate fall from 24% in both 2022 and 2024 to 17% in the 2026 elections.
This significant decline also reflects their objections to certain aspects of President Trump’s personality and the impact of economic conditions. Charlie Kirk had previously warned American Christians that if they failed to participate in political life and elections today, other forces would eventually emerge that could deprive them of that very participation in the future.
Short-Term Thinking
Another major factor was the war with Iran, which caused a noticeable increase in food and fuel prices.
The fundamental problem with the Iran war was Trump’s hesitation to bring it to a decisive conclusion. As a result, the crisis has dragged on for nine months so far, despite his promise that it would be a short war.
The war against Iran was necessary to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear bomb and long-range missiles capable of reaching all of Europe. But the problem is that certain figures within the Trump administration dragged him into endless negotiations with an Iranian adversary highly skilled at gambling on time and American elections.
In Iran, they are now celebrating the success of their strategy, which has pushed Trump into the lame-duck phase of his presidency.
One of the greatest problems with American elections in general is that voters tend to focus on immediate, short-term policies, particularly the economy and their standard of living.
Trump achieved important successes in areas of long-term American national security. These include curbing illegal immigration, strategically securing America’s position in South America, particularly in Panama and Venezuela, and securing the relocation of part of Taiwan’s semiconductor manufacturing industry to the United States. He also moved quickly to secure rare minerals for American industries through agreements with Japan, Australia, Ukraine, and Greenland, while building a strategic reserve of rare minerals.
Another important achievement of President Trump has been his clear effort to bring manufacturing back to the United States, an effort that has succeeded in several respects.
Trump also deserves credit for moving swiftly to bring identity politics and cultural values back into alignment with American history and the country’s deep Christian religious roots. It is equally important to highlight his role in combating Islamic extremism inside America and warning the West about its dangers.
But it was the inflation crisis that moved American voters. Trump’s personal style also significantly overshadowed his achievements.
The Success of the Red-Green Alliance
The most dangerous outcome of these elections was the unmistakable penetration of American politics by the Red-Green alliance. Left-wing Senator Bernie Sanders highlighted this breakthrough when he stated that his movement had fielded 16 candidates for the House of Representatives, 15 of whom won, and five candidates for the Senate, four of whom won.
This signals the birth of a political movement that is growing stronger by the day within American politics. Its influence will continue to expand until it completely devours the Democratic Party.
According to statistics published by the Washington Blade, 17 openly LGBTQ candidates also won their elections, including two to the Senate.
As for Muslims, the election of eight Muslim candidates has been confirmed: seven to the House of Representatives and one to the Senate, along with a large number of others elected to state legislatures and city councils.
The problem is not that they are Muslims. The problem is that most of them are devout Muslims.
Hassan al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, had defeated Thomas Jefferson in Michigan and New Jersey.
There is absolutely no doubt that Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed and Adam Hamawy are devout Muslims connected to the Muslim Brotherhood and on a mission to advance political Islam.
The problem with Muslim candidacies is that ideological Islamic organizations manage the entire process from beginning to end. They begin grooming candidates from the moment they enter university through the Muslim Students Association (MSA), which is linked to the Muslim Brotherhood. Other Islamic organizations, such as CAIR and ISNA, then provide most of the campaigning, mobilization, volunteers, and part of the funding.
The Muslim candidate visits mosques and calls on Muslims to unite completely behind him. Fatwas are even issued from certain mosques urging Muslims to support the Muslim candidate, as though this were a war between Muslims and infidels.
We saw Abdulrahman El-Sayed declare in his first speech in Washington after his victory that he had come to address the nation’s capital from the Arab capital of Michigan, by which, of course, he meant the Islamic capital. This is despite the fact that Arabs and Muslims constitute no more than 3% of Michigan’s population.
Abdul also established an Islamic super PAC with an Arabic name, Habibi PAC, joining several other Islamic super PACs focused on supporting Muslim candidates.
As for Adam Hamawy, after his victory, he asked his followers to repeat after him: “Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar!”, “Allah is the greatest! Allah is the greatest!” This is the same slogan shouted by jihadist organizations before and after every terrorist operation.
This entire process is designed to produce Muslim politicians, not to encourage Muslims to participate in politics. It is a dangerous process that will allow political Islam to infiltrate the very foundations of American institutions while depriving other Muslims of any meaningful political participation, because they refuse to participate through Islamic organizations.
A prominent Egyptian, Dr. Ragheb El-Sergany, a professor at the Faculty of Medicine and a member of the International Union of Muslim Scholars, has openly acknowledged that elected Muslims in America represent Islam.
This exposes another problem: the fusion of religion and state in Islam, and the efforts of Islamic organizations to portray Islam as a race rather than merely a religion, treating Islam and Muslims as one inseparable entity. And if you criticize any of this, they immediately launch a campaign against you and accuse you of Islamophobia.
This happened to me personally when I called on American Christians of Middle Eastern origin in Michiga, who, incidentally, outnumber Arab Muslims in the state, not to vote for Abdul because of his obvious Muslim Brotherhood ideology. That very ideology was the reason these Christians fled the Middle East for America in the first place. As a result of my call, I was subjected to an enormous wave of insults and threats from the Muslim Brotherhood and its media arms around the world.
The Democratic Party is now facing the most dangerous phase in its history: being swallowed by the Red-Green movement and transformed into an extremist party that has turned against its own history.
Things have reached the point where Zohran Mamdani is holding consultations to determine who will represent the party in the next presidential election from within this movement. Naturally, Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed is at the top of Mamdani’s list of potential candidates.
As for America, it faces a grave danger from the rise of this destructive alliance. Indeed, Hassan al-Banna and Karl Marx have joined forces to destroy America and the West.
