In yet another blow to the GOP, Republicans were crushed in a special election in New Hampshire. This comes as a major disappointment following the disastrous 2022 election, where Republicans severely underperformed despite having everything in their favor. It’s truly astonishing how the party keeps making the same mistakes over and over again.
The GOP candidate, James Guzofski, a local pastor who has claimed that Trump won the 2020 election based on what the prophets told him, lost by a whopping 12 points in a district that the current Republican Governor had won by 22 points. This was supposed to be an easy win for the Republicans, but they managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory once again.
This is starting to feel all too familiar. Remember in 2022 when the GOP kept losing special elections, but then they would point to a poll showing them doing well in the general and act like everything was fine? It seems like they’re ready to jump right back on that rollercoaster, but perhaps this time they should give their seat away because clearly, they haven’t learned a thing.

It’s mind-boggling how quickly they forget. Just recently, we saw Republicans getting excited over positive surveys from Emerson and the Harvard-Harris poll showing them dominating in 2024. But let’s not forget that these polls were way off in 2022 and overestimated GOP support. How short are our memories?
If something doesn’t change soon within the Republican party, we’re in for another painful defeat in 2024. It’s time for a serious reckoning and some real soul-searching. Republicans can’t keep running the same playbook and expect different results. It’s time to shake things up and bring in some new leadership.
It’s clear that the GOP needs to learn from their past mistakes and start making some changes. Otherwise, they’ll continue to lose elections and disappoint their supporters. Let’s hope they finally wake up and realize that it’s time for a new approach. Otherwise, they’ll be stuck in this cycle of failure for years to come.
