The American People are in charge. Republican President Trump is the Minority President of an ever diminishing minority. When that minority gets small enough, possibly very soon, the Republicon panic will become a stampede for the exit.

The majority who dislike and distrust Trump is growing daily. Within that, the distrust and dislike is intensifying.

Democrats must be ready to capitalize on it. One priority is to keep the Republican and Trump brands welded together, especially at House and Senate levels. Track voting records on 538 site. Record endorsements, equivocation, false equalizing, and parrots.
