Senior Republicans privately worry as pro-Trump pollsters predict midterm 'disaster'

Republican operatives are privately expressing concern about the 2026 midterms, hoping voters will forget Trump's first year in office before November elections. According to a Zeteo report, even pro-Trump pollsters are worried about GOP prospects. While Republican Party leaders publicly dismiss predictions of a "bloodbath," insiders admit behind closed doors to significant anxiety. Trump's polling has declined in recent weeks due to harsh immigration policies, ICE enforcement actions, and economic concerns. Notably, some of the most Trump-friendly pollsters are reaching similar conclusions to nonpartisan polling firms, warning administration officials and MAGA insiders of a likely "disaster" or "blue wave" in November. The disconnect between public confidence and private concerns reveals deep anxiety within Republican circles about maintaining power in the upcoming midterm elections.
