'An extinction-level event': How the GOP's midterm collapse upends 2028 race for White House

What the coverage shows

Both outlets frame the midterms as a development that changes the outlook for the 2028 White House race. The Los Angeles Times headline uses the strongest language, calling it an “extinction-level event” for the GOP, while France 24 focuses more on Democrats eyeing a “wide-open” and potentially crowded primary. France 24 alone explicitly says the party’s divide over how to win back the White House could be exposed.
