Laura Loomer says "America is over" after the 2026 midterm elections; Megan Basham and Marjorie Taylor Greene push back

Case period:
Published by The Dispute Index editorial teamPublished Updated
Overview
Democrats won majorities in both the House and the Senate in the 2026 midterm elections. Loomer, a far-right activist with a large following on X, is an informal adviser to President Donald Trump, who has praised her in public. Other Republicans offered their own explanations for the losses: Vice President JD Vance blamed the Iran war and Trump blamed Fox News. Loomer's dispute with Trump adviser Alex Bruesewitz over paid posts, which began the same week, is a separate case.

Associated Press report, published by PBS NewsHour, on Vance's post and Trump's defense of the war during a visit to the White House ballroom site. It cites the AP Voter Poll: about 6 in 10 voters said taking military action against Iran was the wrong decision, and about one-third put the war in the top category of importance for their vote, against about half for the cost of living or government corruption.

Megyn KellyHost of The Megyn Kelly Show, speaking on her showBefore this statement
Kelly opens the segment by saying that Loomer is giving up her show, which she welcomes, and calls her a lunatic. Early on November 6, Loomer had announced a hiatus from her livestreamed show, Loomer Unleashed.
"Look at this. This is clearly a mentally unstable person. Use your eyes. You don't need me to tell you. Look at this. This is obviously a deeply disturbed person. And in the wake of this, she pulled her show. Great. Good. Step away from the microphone, touch grass and get yourself the help you obviously so deeply need."

Full statement and sources
On her show, Kelly shows a screen grab of the number of posts Loomer made on X over the previous 48 hours, calls her a mentally unstable and deeply disturbed person, welcomes her decision to step back from her show and tells her to get help.
After the statement
Kelly then shows Mark Levin's posts, saying his are not much better, and says that people like them are spiraling because they recognize how problematic they are, whether or not they say so.
"Mentally Unstable Person": Megyn on "Lunatic" Laura Loomer Giving Up Her Show and Her Crazy Tweets · Megyn KellyClip from the November 6, 2026 episode, 0:00 to 1:08 (whole clip)Why this label?
The reference point is Laura Loomer's response to the November 3, 2026 midterm results: her posts saying that America is over and attributing the Republican losses to a takeover by communists and jihadists. Kelly does not argue with the substance of the claim, but she treats the volume of Loomer's posts since the election as evidence of a deeply disturbed person and welcomes her stepping away, which is a direct criticism of the posting under scrutiny rather than a dispute over how it is described.

Will SommerSenior reporter at The Bulwark, speaking on The Bulwark's video show The Trio Before this statement
The hosts had shown a graphic of Loomer's posts on X and said she had posted 138 times in the previous 24 hours. Loomer had asked on election night why God let the country be taken over by Muslims and communists, and the next day she asked Christian nationalists where their God was. On November 4 she also posted that the elderly were the biggest winners of the election because they would not have to see the collapse of America, and that she envied them.
"And keep in mind, folks, a lot of these are like, there is no God because how could God allow this to happen? I envy the elderly because they'll be dead soon. I mean, these are not like political, like normal political tweets."

Tim MillerHost of The Bulwark Podcast, speaking on The Bulwark's video show The TrioBefore this statement
The hosts had been discussing a graphic of Loomer's posts on X after the election, and Will Sommer had described several of them. HasanAbi is the online name of the left-wing streamer Hasan Piker.
"You know, this Loomer conversation, given her like rampant Islamophobia, does bring to mind HasanAbi. The Republicans tried to make their entire campaign in Michigan and a couple of these other states about Hasan's bad comments on his YouTube stream. For some reason, that didn't work at all."

On The Bulwark's The Trio, Miller says the discussion of Loomer's posts brings Hasan Piker to mind given what he calls her rampant Islamophobia, and says that the Republican effort to make the campaign in Michigan and other states about Piker's comments did not work.
After the statement
Miller adds that Democrats never made their campaign about Loomer, which he puts down to their campaigning on issues people care about, and then turns to a request Piker had made of the show.
