So they decided to hand the house to the dems and let them be open opposition to Trump as opposed to the hidden opposition that the GOP had been. The ran half assed campaigns and had a bunch of safe members retire unexpectedly to seal the deal.
They had no issues with turning their seats over to dems but they ill cling to those seats until it's pried out of their cold dead hands in order to keep MAGA people from taking them.
