While I'm not entirely sure whether this title above given by (The Week) is a 'credible one,' or not (due to so much 'fake news' these days), I will say this. President Trump won the White House along with huge GOP victories in several areas, which has not been seen in many years- not for the Republicans anyway.
The GOP won the WH, held both the House and the Senate, another major victory, and should The Week's headline be correct, what will this mean for President Trump after the 'mid-term' election? Historically speaking the majority party tends to lose the House after running all three branches.
And despite all the 'fake polling' numbers (no different than during the 2016 presidential election, you'd think pollsters would have learned their lessons- by now), the simple fact is, should the republicans fail to maintain either the House or Senate (especially the House), the results could mean 'big trouble,' for Trump. We already know well enough the democrats would attempt to 'impeach' president Trump at the drop of a hat!
And despite just 'ramming through' their (GOP) agenda through the House and Senate, as they did during Obama's first term in office, republican leadership ultimately stands to look the as THE 'biggest losers' in all of this, aside from the possible 'impeachment attempt' the dems would make, should they re-take the House. As the saying goes, 'a party divided cannot stand!'
And just who do we (GOP) have to 'blame' for ALL this? Ryan (House) and McConnell (Senate). And you can make a clear argument that neither has acted as though they want to be the 'ruling party!' Worse yet, THEY BOTH seem to be 'fighting,' rather than carrying out the President's agenda. Should the GOP lose either the House or Senate, I think either one, both preferably should be immediately 'removed' from their positions of 'leadership!'
See, BOTH Ryan and McConnell belong to the 'establishment wing' of the republican party, a nice way of saying they're "Never-Trumpers!" But are they stupid enough to no matter to risk owning all three branches of the government? I suppose only time will tell. But one thing
Needless to say, the 2018 mid-term election will be telling as to what will lie in store for the remainder of the Trump administration, the current GOP 'leadership,' needs to replaced!
