'Doesn't end well': GOP analyst reveals Trump's latest moves put Republicans in 'jeopardy'

President Donald Trump's latest moves put Republicans in "jeopardy" ahead of the 2026 midterm election, one GOP analyst revealed on Sunday.

Former Rep. Carlos Curbelo, a Republican who represented Florida from 2015 to 2019, said on Sunday that Trump's efforts to prosecute his political opponents could cause Republicans to lose voters from the "political middle." That could significantly hinder the party's efforts to retain control of the House and Senate following the election.

Curbelo discussed the potential impact of Trump's moves to prosecute his opponents on MSNBC's "Alex Witt Reports."

"These are all prettyweak cases, and we'll see howthey play out in the courts, but here's what I think isreally a shame: President Trumpcampaigned last year, tellingthe American people that thejustice system, not just at thefederal level, but in certainstates, had been weaponizedagainst him," Curbelo said. "A lot of peopletrusted him, believed him, and sympathized with thosearguments."

Over the last couple of weeks, Trump allies have indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James and former FBI Director James Comey. James was indicted for alleged mortgage fraud, while Comey is facing charges of lying to Congress and obstruction of justice. Both James and Comey have denied the allegations against them.

"With thatperspective, for theadministration now to turnaround and do something thatreally seems similar to whatthe president was describing,really puts him in jeopardy oflosing that political middle," he continued. "And I think this could hurtcongressional republicans inthe midterms next year."

"Twowrongs don't make a right," he added. "Iknow we learned that when we'revery young, but apparently ourpoliticians still haven'tlearned it. So I don't thinkthat this ends well for ourdemocracy. And I don't think itends well for republicanspolitically."
