1. There is potential for an anti-Trump backlash among the welfare class - their win in Alabama once they smelled blood is proof.
2. There is potential for an anti-establishment backlash among conservative voters - their anger over the establishment betrayal and unnecessary loss in Alabama could last.
3. There is potential for an anti-voting backlash among republicans - their irritation over Congress refusing to repeal Obamacare now that the vote could actually count is a real risk.
Solution?
Focus on meaningful, conservative legislation:
- Repeal Obamacare
- Pass the hearing protection act to eliminate restrictions on silencers
- Pass concealed carry reciprocity
- Fund the wall, for real
- Shrink the federal government
- Pass real immigration reform that shrinks the number of immigrants and puts American workers first
If GOP Congresscritters care about keeping their majority, they have to use that majority to pass the laws they campaigned for that motivated our votes.
Sadly none of these will ever see the Presidents desk.
