Surviving Trump
It’s not long until the most consequential midterms of our lifetime. Season 3 of Surviving Trump: Saving America starts September 10th — nine episodes, tracking the 2026 midterms week by week, from the threats already in motion to exactly where your time and money matter most.
What’s in This Season
•Episode 1 (Sept 10): Sixteen threats to this election straight from Project 2025, plus new polling showing Trump’s approval at a record low.
•The House, in two parts: Which seats are actually close, and the candidates running in them.
•The Senate, in two parts: The same breakdown — the numbers, then the people.
•Voter suppression, nationally: Disinformation and administrative sabotage, tracked from the federal level down to the county level.
•Where your money matters: A full episode on donation strategy — which races, which organizations, which dollar goes furthest.
•A campaign getting it right: What one candidate’s message and discipline can teach the rest.
•The final episode (two days before Election Day): One last update on where everything stands, and a final push to get every eligible voter to the polls.
Why It Matters
This isn’t a season about watching from the sidelines. Every episode is built to leave you with something to act on, who to watch, where to give, and what’s actually at stake if we don’t show up. There is still enough time to change the outcome. This season is the roadmap.

Bella Goode is a pseudonym — but the voice, research, and mission are all real. A Republican turned Democrat advocate in 2016, I was raised by middle class parents in Pennsylvania. I’m a former marketing executive, entrepreneur, and lifelong learner with an MBA from Wharton and a Master’s in Psychology from Penn. I spent decades telling stories in the business world; now I use those skills to connect the dots in American politics.
I’m here because the truth matters — and because the stakes have never been higher. Surviving Trump isn’t lighthearted. It’s clarity, evidence, and a fight for the future of our democracy.
