There is a very simple solution for Republicans worried that Trump will cost them their seats: Stop being horrible.
You know better than to support him and the absurd policies this administration and its willing lapdog GOP Congress put forward. Even if you don't have the moral sense to know better, basic facts should help you make the right decision. This is not rocket science. A healthcare bill with an 18% approval rating should not even be a hard call for you people, so why is it? Repealing the law that sought to prevent Wall Street from decimating people's retirement accounts? Probably not a great message to send to voters who got stung by the 2008 Wall Street collapse and bailout while bankers got away scot-free and with more money.* Infrastructure bill that focuses on shoveling dollars to cronies rather than fixing our infrastructure and creating jobs? The public is not quite as stupid as you think they are. So grow a pair and try representing the actual people of your districts rather than your wealthy donors for once. Promise this will work!
*Reported in Forbes this week--the bonus pool for Wall Street execs exceeds the total earnings of minimum wage workers across the country. And you wonder why people are angry at you guys--both parties?
