Morning Bits: Trumps travails hang over the GOP (check out the lead photo)

[ffr]

Republicans might prefer if President Trump didn’t hang around for a 2020 reelection race. “Overall, the President’s approval rating in the poll stands at 37% approve to 57% disapprove.

Democrats will be encouraged to hang in there. “Trump’s message on the shutdown — blaming Democrats for refusing to concede on his border wall — isn’t convincing the American public. Instead, the majority of Americans think Trump and Republicans are at fault for the shutdown, according to two new polls.”

The Russia probe will hang over everything Trump does.

He boxed himself in a corner. He didn’t empower his negotiators like the vice president or Lindsey Graham or Mitch McConnell. He’s not allowed any win-win circumstance.” - WaPo

So much winning, eh Mitch? Are you beginning to regret aligning yourself with someone who betrayed their country? Then again, who's to say that you, like so many of your conservative comrades, didn't also.

6. The longer he stays in office

And the longer trump and the gop don't just open the government, they will lose a lot more people in Congress , and especially the White House. They should just pass a veto proof bill to reopen the government , and stop trump from dragging them down to hell with him now, before this continues to worsen for all republicans.
