On Wednesday morning, ABC, CBS, and NBC were riding high and drunk on power after seeing their preferred candidates sweep with socialist Zohran Mamdani’s “astonishing surge” in New York City and Democrats Mikie Sherrill in New Jersey, and Abigail Spanberger in Virginia romping to huge wins, declaring this a GOP “bloodbath” and “glimmer of hope” for Democrats in 2026 with “a guidebook” to create a blue wave.
As always, ABC’s Good Morning America led the way in liberal sycophancy. It started from the outset with co-host and former Clinton official George Stephanopoulos making sure to brand Sherrill and Spanberger as “centrist Democrats” in contrast to “democratic socialist” Mamdani.
