Midterms are two weeks away. Which seats actually decide control of Congress? What does early turnout tell us? And what do the likely outcomes mean for Trump, inflation, fiscal policy, and global markets? @kkondik of Sabato’s Crystal Ball at UVA joins LiveSquawk Market Talk to break it all down.

Midterms aren’t at risk. Americans don’t care about foreign policy. Oil shock will not touch Americans. We will ban refined product exports and fuck the Europeans access to supply just as they get ravaged by El Niño. The Iran theatre will escalate and infra will be destroyed. The Canadian economy will go through the most severe depression in decades and Carney will ultimately resign. Brazil will swing rightward and Cuba will be regime changed cementing fortress Americas. We will build and hegemony will be secured 🫡

MIDTERMS: Republicans are now heavily favored to seize the US Senate in the 2026 midterms after Democrats’ brief projection flip collapsed, with their odds of holding the chamber plunging to just 42%. #BET#

These midterms, without exaggeration, are the most consequential of our lifetimes. I have never seen candidates as extreme as Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan, who says he has an obligation to follow Sharia law. He and his family have long ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. If he gets elected to the Senate, he could be on the Senate Intelligence Committee, passing intelligence on to the Muslim Brotherhood and endangering American lives. In my home state of Texas, James Talarico says he wants to “dismantle capitalism.”
