All-In Podcast REACTS to Democrat Sweep!
The All-In hosts cover the 2026 midterm results live as Democrats head toward a sweep, with guests Ted Cruz, Rahm Emanuel, Polymarket's Shane Coplan, Tim Dillon, Taylor Lorenz, Brad Gerstner and Ben Shapiro on what drove it.
The gist
-
Calacanis notes Polymarket's odds of a Democratic sweep jumped from the low 80s to 93% in an hour, on $68.7 million in volume.
-
Ted Cruz predicts a Democratic Congress would bring gridlock, stalled judicial confirmations, repeated impeachments and an attack on AI and data centers.
-
Rahm Emanuel urges Democrats to pass ethics reform, including stock trading bans and blind trusts, and calls health care costs the top inflation driver.
-
Shane Coplan says anyone overpaying to push a Polymarket price draws traders to the other side, so the market rebalances almost instantly.
-
Gerstner expects 10 to 15 of the 43 gigawatts forecast for 2027 won't come online, and sees a possible 50 basis point GDP headwind.
"Looks like Steve Hilton was trending not so great, Chamath, on Polymarket, like a 2% chance last time I checked, and we'll pull that up in a second."
