We have 52 votes in the Senate once Sessions replacement is onboard. And we have McCain, Graham, Collins, Flake, etc. who are not reliable.

The GOP needs Dem votes to pass legislation unless they get rid of the filibuster entirely. The failure to repeal and replace Obamacare demonstrated the inability of the GOP to come together and govern.

Trump was able to win against all odds. If the GOP cannot coalesce behind him, they deserve to be the minority party. The midterms will be a disaster if Trump has nothing to show for his victory.

Trump and the GOP need to prioritize 10 or so actions, unite behind them, get on the same page with a message that explains how and why they will MAGA, then get off their ass and SELL it to the American people.

That was the beauty of Newt’s Contract, contrasted with Ryan’s pathetic, secret, half-assed, gotta pass in 18 days, Obamacare POS.
