Ted won’t rally the American people like Trump already has. That will be a huge factor in getting congress to do what’s good for the country. Ted not even close to Trump in that respect. Sorry.
You may be right, but - in my humble and hopefully inoffensive opinion (yes, I’m being a bit of a smartass myself now) - Trump’s enormous 57-60% nationwide unfavorable rating will be a major obstacle to overcome - with Congress and the public.
