Elon Musk’s Warning Is Not Unfounded If Democrats win the White House, the Senate, and the House of Representatives in 2028, the United States could face several institutional changes that would fundamentally reshape its political balance of power. First, Democrats could push to make Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico states, adding Senate seats and seeking a long-term political advantage. Second, they could pursue more lenient border and immigration policies, granting legal status to large numbers of undocumented immigrants who currently cannot vote, allowing them to potentially obtain citizenship in the future and thereby expanding the Democratic Party’s voter base. Third, they could expand the Supreme Court from nine justices to thirteen or more, directly altering the existing balance of judicial power. These plans may not all be achievable in the short term, but such proposals have already been openly discussed within the Democratic Party. If Democrats gain full control of the federal government, given their consistently aggressive political approach, they would likely use institutional reforms to further consolidate their power. If these measures were implemented one after another, the United States could gradually move toward a political system in which Democrats maintain a long-term advantage, significantly weakening political competition and the checks and balances that are fundamental to American democracy. California’s Political History: What Has Decades of One-Party Dominance Produced? California provides a real-world example worth examining closely. In 1986, the Reagan administration signed the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA), which eventually granted legal status to approximately 2.7 million eligible undocumented immigrants, a substantial portion of whom lived in California. The last time a Republican presidential candidate won California was in 1988. Since then, the Democratic Party’s advantage in California’s presidential elections has steadily grown, resulting in a political landscape dominated by Democrats for decades. Since 1999, with the exception of the eight years under Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, California’s governorship has remained in Democratic hands, while Democrats have also maintained long-term control of the state legislature. The lack of effective checks and balances resulting from prolonged one-party dominance has already caused significant harm. Today, California faces soaring housing costs, a persistent homelessness crisis, drug-related problems, public safety concerns, filthy streets in parts of its cities, recurring wildfires, and repeated criticism over inadequate disaster prevention and emergency response. These problems have persisted for years. Without meaningful political checks and balances, the government has gradually lost its ability to correct its own failures, leaving many of these issues unresolved. Yet despite this record, the mayor of Los Angeles and the governor of California have shown little serious reflection. Instead, they shamelessly seek reelection, while Governor Gavin Newsom even appears to have presidential ambitions, hoping to bring California’s governing model to the entire country. The Democratic Party’s Agenda: Impeachment, Supreme Court Expansion, and Immigration Policy The Democratic Party currently lacks a clear central leader and concrete, workable economic and governing policies. Its political agenda is largely focused on expanding its power and targeting political opponents. Even before the 2026 midterm elections have taken place, Democrats have already openly discussed pursuing another impeachment of President Trump, and even impeaching Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, if they regain control of Congress. They know perfectly well that securing a two-thirds majority for conviction in the Senate is extremely difficult. Trump’s previous two impeachment trials have already demonstrated that. Yet they continue to pursue impeachment, turning the process itself into a political weapon. This approach is nothing more than shooting themselves in the foot. The 91 criminal charges previously brought against Trump, his multiple convictions, and substantial financial penalties ultimately helped propel him back into the White House. His second presidential election victory was even more decisive. He won not only the Electoral College but also the national popular vote and all seven swing states. If Democrats regain control of Congress after the midterms and launch another impeachment effort, it is foreseeable that these continued political maneuvers could once again provoke a backlash among voters, potentially helping Republicans return to the White House in the 2028 presidential election. On the Supreme Court, even when the Court has not sided with Trump in major cases involving issues such as trade tariffs and birthright citizenship, Democrats have continued advocating an expansion to thirteen or more justices to secure a majority. The objective of such a proposal is not to improve the judicial system but to directly change the Court’s political composition. On immigration, Democrats’ approach of maintaining open borders, restricting enforcement, and protecting undocumented immigrants is widely viewed as an attempt to expand their future voter base. Meanwhile, the far-left Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) openly promotes socialist policies within the Democratic political sphere, pushing the party’s agenda in an increasingly radical direction. America Needs a Government That Solves Real Problems America needs a government capable of solving real problems, not politicians and political parties endlessly preoccupied with fighting for power. When enormous amounts of political energy are devoted to impeachment, lawsuits, and expanding the Supreme Court, the issues that directly affect people’s lives—housing, public safety, city management, and disaster preparedness—are pushed aside. California’s long-term experience has demonstrated that one-party dominance does not produce better governance. Instead, problems continue to accumulate while no one is held accountable. What American voters truly care about is the economy, the cost of living, whether the border is secure and orderly, whether their communities are safe, and whether their living conditions are improving—not endless partisan battles and attempts to restructure political institutions. Only by putting real problem-solving ahead of consolidating political power can America return to a healthier path. To preserve an America for our children and grandchildren—one where political parties can still compete fairly, governments can function effectively, and mistakes can be corrected—voting for the comparatively more reasonable Republican Party is a wise choice to help prevent the country from heading in the wrong direction.
