>>Trump would be in a strong position here: It’s doubtful that both the House and the Republican-led Senate would agree to end an emergency by the necessary two-thirds majority. With 235 seats, Democrats control just 54% of the House, but Norcross and other Democrats told Quartz there was growing support among Republicans to challenge a Trump declaration. In the Senate, where the GOP holds 53 of 100 seats, moderate Republicans would have to join Democrats in opposition.

******

And then there was Romney. And how active would he be to lead among the “moderate” Republicans to overthrow anything Trump wanted?
