Lincoln, TR, and Ike have been spinning in their graves so hard that the GOP exhumed them for use as drill bits to make the shaft.

Just those who follow and support Trump in Congress.

If Trump is polling well below 45% in the states that he won in 2016, he will lose. Nor does it bode well for Republicans running for office in those states.

For in the Farm/Rust Belt states suffering from Trade wars, high tariffs , and closing manufacturing plants as they see their incomes fall, they just may turn on Trump.

Democrats need to reach out to those voters, and I am confident they will.

Democrats have made the accusations so extreme that anything less than video evidence of Putin implanting the Manchurian Device personally seems like he has been totally vindicated.

Responding to the most obvious objections - removal from office other than by election was always unlikely (given the composition of the senate). We need to keep the public focused on how unacceptable he is as a President so that 2020 is an easy decision.
