It's the war, stupid.   The Iran conflict and the resulting rise in gas and oil prices turned the 2026 election into a one-issue national battle.  But the end result will be felt in states like Wisconsin that have turned over total control of all branches of government to radical Marxists.   So who's to blame for this?  Trump?  Well, mostly.   But also, which counties and which states stood firm?  We'll look at that, too.

The Mark Belling Podcast

Mark Belling Podcast #186:   Mark analyzes the 2026 election bloodbath: part of it is the typical mid-term losses but most of the rest of it was the war with Iran.   But the end result will be Marxism in Wisconsin with an explosion in taxes.  And, if that's too much gloom and doom, Mark does manage to find a silver lining.
