Hours later, in the wake of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/democrats-sweep-republicans-in-nearly-every-race-that-matters\/\" class=\"text link\">the Democratic sweep<\/a>, Fuentes took credit for the victory. \u201cWe did it again\u201d he wrote on Telegram, later calling the phenomenon \u201cthe Groyper Effect,\u201d a reference to the nickname given to his followers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">In recent days, Fuentes has claimed the election results are an opportunity for him and his allies on the far-right.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">\u201cLet the Democrats rule, see how that goes,\u201d Fuentes said during a livestream last week. \u201cThere will come a time when the far left will terrorize people, and they&#8217;re going to push all of them into the arms of the right. Who&#8217;s going to fight the far left? Only the far-right. This is why we have to take over the right wing now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">In another livestream last week, Fuentes added a warning to the GOP leadership: \u201cIt\u2019s our party now \u2026 You need to cooperate with us\u2026 Groypers are open for business. It has [to] be America First\u2014and if it&#8217;s not, we&#8217;ll do it again for the enemy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">A WIRED review of comments from white supremacist, Christian nationalist, and other far-right groups in the wake of the midterm results shows much of the same. While the groups are uniformly attacking Trump\u2019s failure to prioritize white, Christian American values, they also believe that this sudden shift to the left will result in a backlash that will see more people embrace far-right groups and ideologies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">\u201cMany prominent figures in racist extremist movements have taken to declaring the MAGA movement dead since midterm elections, claiming that the results validate their previous criticisms of the Trump administration and opens new opportunities for their movements to push disaffected voters toward their ideological beliefs,\u201d Jared Holt, senior researcher at Open Measures, tells WIRED.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">While some of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/these-extremists-are-running-for-election-in-november\/\" class=\"text link\">the Republican party\u2019s extremist candidates<\/a> were rejected during the elections last week, many did win their elections.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">The Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights tracked 535 candidates running in statewide races who were members of at least one far-right Facebook group. The researchers found that of the 476 races that had been called by last Friday, 338 of those candidates were victorious, representing a 71 percent win rate (the vast majority of these races saw GOP incumbents retain their seats). In Florida, for example, 34-year-old citrus farmer Marshall Rawson, who attended the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville in 2017, easily defeated his Democrat opponent in the state\u2019s 10th District State House race.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/we-have-to-take-over-far-right-extremists-want-to-seize-control-of-the-gop\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Election Day last week, white nationalist Nick Fuentes urged his supporters on X to \u201cget out and vote Democrat today.\u201d The post racked up over 12 million views.
