POLITICS & GOVERNMENT Trump’s approval falls in NC, while Roy Cooper widens polling lead over GOP By Danielle Battaglia
In the poll, Cooper led Whatley by 8.7 points. This is the third poll Carolina Journal has done since August. Cooper has held a lead each time, holding a similar 8.2 point lead in August, but only a 4.2 point lead in September. Similar results are being found by other pollsters. Carolina Journal also polled Cooper against Whatley’s primary opponent, Don Brown, a veteran and attorney. Cooper still led but this time by 10 points.
When Trump sent ICE to Charlotte, I knew this race was a rap for Roy Cooper.
He was an idiot for picking Charlotte. Picking on a purple state is a bad plan.
Yes, I hope he sends his goon squads to Nevada and Arizona next. Vegas, Tucson, and Phoenix to be exact.

It's a long way til election day still, but I think whoever challenges her has a good shot. Especially after this election day. People are pissed at the status quo and Susan's trademark frown of inaction isn't going to be popular.
She may not be as lucky this time. I'm not convinced she will pull it off.

MAGA's absence of analytical ability on display yet again!
No one has said Trump is a king. However, it is indisputable that Trump, Miller, Vought, Project 2025 and all of the mindless little cretins who support him would like to buck the history and genesis of the United States and vest in the president very authoritarian powers (remember the many times Trump has said Ï can do what I want. I am president). And who else has those sorts of power but a king! People are not complaining he is a king, they are trying to prevent him from becoming a complete authoritarian with a weak congress and who refuses to be answerable to the courts.
+1
The fancy term they use for this is "unitary executive".

The NYT op-ed guy thinks Dems could pick up a Senate seat in Alaska...
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/17/opinion/democratic-senate-majority.html
When you think about states that might throw Democrats a lifeline, Alaska hardly comes to mind first.
But I could argue that it will play a crucial part in the party’s quest to reclaim a Senate majority next year. And that Democrats will prevail.
Hear me out. One of Alaska’s two Republican senators, Dan Sullivan, is up for re-election. His Democratic opponent might be Mary Peltola, a former member of Congress who was defeated in her statewide race to be re-elected to Alaska’s sole seat in the House by just two percentage points last year. Peltola lost in what turned out to be a chilly climate for Democrats, but 2026 is shaping up to be colder for Republicans. So she — or another reasonably popular Democrat — should have a shot, especially given demographic changes in Alaska that seemingly cut in the party’s favor.
