The Trumpites on a cruise to nowhere.
The Republican party has no consistent message or platform.
Republicans have no one able to stand up to Trump, and are unable to get rid of him.

.... WINNING! ...First president to lose the White House and both chambers of congress in one fell swoop in over a half century. Passed 1 tax cut and no other legislation of significance. Destroyed confidence in our democratic principals for purely selfish and egotistical motives.

Trump/McConnel/Ryan just didn’t fuck up what was handed them and the economy was strong enough to withstand a huge giveaway to the comfortably well off, actual rich people and corporations (most of which already pay a small percentage of tax compared to their wealth as compared to the actual middle class.
