you have the spectre of steve bannon and what he represents. but they are much more vulnerable on the house. 2018 is about arguing the economy. this president is presiding over a strong economy. he has lowered your taxes. he wants to get you back to work. he wants to get the country going again. there is talk of infrastructure. trump is leading the republican party but all the while saying, oh, no, i m not with them. 2018 is an election year. is any year not an election year? it feels like we are constantly in election cycle. is it too soon to talk about 2020. people who want to run in 2020, try to distinguish themselves in the midterms.
