John Kennedy would be a steadfast Republican in 2017. That's how far the Democratic Party has moved to Crazytown. The Republicans don't really have to do much.

The democrats control nearly every institution, all of academia, Hollywood and the 4th Estate, yet they still got whitewashed this past election cycle. That tells you how odious their product is.

“I don’t think that there will be any curtailing of Donald Trump as president,” he said. "He controls the media, he controls the sentiment [and] he controls everybody. He’s the one who will resort to executive orders more so than [President] Obama ever used them." - Ron Paul
There is only one democrat that has a shot of beating Trump in 2020 and that is Tulsi Gabbard.
But the Democrats are so stupid they will nuke her in the primaries and lose again.
Does it matter who becomes president?

By 2022 all remaining boomers will be old enough to retire and take out all 401k monies with no tax penalty ( 58 ) . By 7 years later they will all be on medicare ( 65)and no longer need employment for health ins. unless they were veterans where they could have already enrolled in VA and not needed employer ins prior to that . By 2 to 4 years after 2022 all remaining boomers will be old enough to draw social security . Age 60 if widowed they may draw a percentage of deceased spouse for two years until 62 and then draw own and govt keeps the rest .

...as one political anthropologist wag put it, 'democrats tend to dominate in areas where human poop is the most abundant poop...republicans dominate in areas where cow, pig, sheep, chicken, etc., poop is the most abundant poop...
OK, well somebody find me a better map -- I don't know!
...yes, let's all keep in mind that helmuth doesn't consume republicrat media like most/all forum politicos...helmuth killed the television a long long time ago...hence the old map..
"Killed" is such a violent word. But no, we simply do not have it in my home.
And yes, I am radically, consciously, intentionally "out of date," "out of step," and "out of tune with the times."
Those were the good old days. Back when the national debt was only 10 trillion.
Talk to your congressmen about that.

Yeah, what's that map supposed to be?
Trump won CD2 in Maine, took an electoral vote because of it. CD2 has a GOP US Rep. The map has Maine as solid blue.
"the usual way" is usually right.
Easy, stop importing welfare voters.
Purge voter rolls

Based on current polls, and recent special election results, the Dems will take many House seats, probably enough to take the majority.
The Senate, on the other hand, will almost certainly remain GOP, though they might lose 1 net seat.
Personally, I hope the GOP comes down to a majority of 1 in both houses, giving Rand and Massie much more leverage.
Yeah- it is so they have an excuse why they can't get rid of Obamacare. This is going to be really annoying when no one notices.
They already didn't get rid of Obamacare, when they could have, and didn't even need an excuse.
The GOP voter isn't really opposed to such programs: if the GOP does it.
They tried to blame it all on Rand Paul so I think its going to be a major 2020 theme.
True, that was the play at the time, when Trump/GOP-sans-Rand were trying to repackage O'care without really changing anything, and Rand got in the way, but do people still think that? What I hear GOPers saying these days, to the extent they talk about economic issue at all, is that the Dems are to blame (somehow, doesn't matter).
Not really.
They will gain seats, maybe even enough for a 60+ seat majority.
The RINOs would sell out to the Dems on every issue under those circumstances and Rand, Lee, Massie, Amash etc. would lose almost all influence.

LOL, you've really turned into a dutiful party member, haven't you?
No, there is no chance whatsoever that the GOP gets to 60+.
As for the House, the Dems will take net seats, guaranteed - reasonable people can disagree as to how many.
Personally, I suspect they'll be right on the line as to the majority: either a majority of a few, or a minority of a few.
It would be preferable to force GOPers to openly join their cross-aisle twins than to allow them to continue pretending to be something different.The RINOs would sell out to the Dems on every issue under those circumstances and Rand, Lee, Massie, Amash etc. would lose almost all influence.
