GOP’s MAGA vs. Establishment War: Is the Party Imploding?

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and the media are relentlessly pursuing the First Liberty Building and Loan $140M Ponzi scheme, exposing GOP ties to tainted donations. The Cook Political Report reveals GOP’s 43% favorability is propped up by control, but party loyalty is fading as independents rise and Elon Musk’s America Party gains traction. With the 2026 midterms looming, the House is in play, and Republicans may hold the Senate. Key races include Michigan’s open seat with Gary Peters retiring, North Carolina’s Michael Whatley (Trump-endorsed) vs. Roy Cooper, South Carolina’s Ralph Norman (Haley-backed) and Nancy Mace (Trump-backed) for governor, and Texas’ John Cornyn facing Ken Paxton. The MAGA vs. Establishment battle defines the GOP’s future. Stay informed on this political earthquake

In Georgia, Brad Raffensperger is not letting the First Liberty Building and Loan go and neither is the media.
The Cook Political Report: The party is over. The only reason the GOP is showing 43% favorable, 10 point favorable is because they control everything. The truth is that the party apparatus is no longer the driving force. That is why Elon Musk is getting traction on a new party. Every year everyone is identifying more and more each year as independent. The party identity is over. You are ok to stay republican and fight everyday to keep republican values. Both of the party apparatus are only ballot access and a club.
Looking at the US House Seats. The House is in play. According to what we are looking at right now it looks as though the republicans can hold the Senate. The midterms will be MAGA vs Establishment.
Open Senate seats put democrats on defense in Michigan. Gary Peters’ (D) is retiring. You have NC, Whatley endorsed by Trump against Roy Cooper. Ralph Norman, endorsed by Nikki Haley running for governor in South Carolina, looks like Nancy Mace is running for governor in SC as the Trump candidate. Then we have Paul Dans running for Senate against Lindsey Graham. Texas Cornyn in the Senate for 24 years with Paxton running against him.
