Former CNN host Chris Cuomo recently spoke with former NBA star Charles Barkley and they had a fascinating exchange about the midterm elections.
Cuomo basically said that if the election is about affordability, that the Democrats can’t lose. Barkley then had a major ‘just a minute there’ moment and poured cold water all over Cuomo’s prediction.
Barkley brought up all of the talk about socialism, defunding the police, getting rid of ICE, and so forth, saying that Democrats are saying ‘stupid shit.’
Cuomo AGAIN tries to defend the Democrats, saying that woke is over and that the Democrats have evolved. If he believes that, then he truly is an idiot.
From Jason Cohen on Twitter/X:
Barkley told Cuomo to hold his horses and noted Democrats are saying “STUPID SH*T.”
He specifically said Democrats’ use of the word “socialism” is a “red flag” — and added that talk of abolishing ICE and defunding police helps Republicans.
Cuomo tried to defend Democrats — but Barkley wasn’t buying it.
He told Cuomo Democrats need to come up with better ideas and better candidates.
Barkley is an independent who votes Democrat.
He’s trying to help his preferred party — but they’re in denial.
Instead of rejecting radical ideas and candidates, Democrats are welcoming them into their “big tent.”
Common sense Americans like Barkley can see through their BS.
This does not bode well for Democrats in the Midterms.

Charles Barkley is right about all of this and that is why the 2026 midterms are different than other years.
The Democrat Party has been infected by a toxic, radical element that wants to do insane things to the country.
There are millions of people in this country who see all of the same things Barkley is seeing.
