So, Republicans can take some faith or and some hope from that. With an unpopular incumbent in this particular presidency in its first midterm, the way of history is pretty strong, and the party in power in the White House has historically, with very few exceptions, done very poorly in a midterm like this one.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/72x72\/1f6a8.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udea8\" class=\"wp-smiley\" \/> NEW: Fox\u2019s Brit Hume calls out Democrat socialists: \u201cThe Democratic Party has gone so far left it\u2019s off the side of the table\u2026 Democrats are really in bad odor with the public.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019ve got all these extreme candidates out there, some of whom won nominations, one who got\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/NpbJMoiljD\">pic.twitter.com\/NpbJMoiljD<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 TV News Now (@TVNewsNow) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TVNewsNow\/status\/2080060900485021970?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 22, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Hume also said Republicans have some hope for the midterms because of the Democrat Party\u2019s extremism.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019ve got all these extreme candidates out there, some of whom won nominations, one who got elected Mayor of NYC.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is one of the reasons Republicans have some hope here,\u201d Hume said.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/72x72\/1f6a8.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udea8\" class=\"wp-smiley\" \/> NEW: Fox\u2019s Brit Hume calls out Democrat socialists: \u201cThe Democratic Party has gone so far left it\u2019s off the side of the table\u2026 Democrats are really in bad odor with the public.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019ve got all these extreme candidates out there, some of whom won nominations, one who got\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/NpbJMoiljD\">pic.twitter.com\/NpbJMoiljD<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 TV News Now (@TVNewsNow) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TVNewsNow\/status\/2080060900485021970?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 22, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/americanwirenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/sg-brit-hume--1200x630.png\" title=\"Brit Hume: \u2018not much good news for Republicans\u2019 in new poll\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brit Hume was all doom and gloom over a recent Fox News poll that didn\u2019t bode well for Republicans ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
