Ian Bremmer Says There Is No Iran Deal
"I think you're gonna see Democrat— what's gonna make this unusual if it stays that this dynamic is you're not just gonna see MAGA lose, you're gonna see sitting Democrats lose. So it's gonna be a two-in-one. It's gonna be the MAGA primary phenomenon and a MAGA as the majority and status quo owner defeat. I think both are going to happen in the midterms."
Ian Bremmer forecasts an unprecedented dual purge in the November midterms where both MAGA Republicans and establishment Democrats will be voted out simultaneously by angry populist movements. He describes this as horseshoe polarization, where young, college-educated voters are rejecting the entire political class at once rather than in sequential waves. This represents a fundamentally different pattern than the MAGA insurgency of 2016.
