after the tariffs announcement as well as the announcement that Trump would meet with Kim.

We keep assuming most American are smart enough to reason through things like that, when in fact they are not.

Terrified of Pelosi as House Speaker again.
The Lamb win in Penn may have spooked some that a Dem wave really is coming.

I think about about 60% of Repubs love Trump and all that he says, does and stands for.
20% don’t like him and are embarrassed by him, but support his agenda.
20% hate him, as much as we Dems do, but for different reasons than we do. They want him out and Pence in before Trump permanently ruins their party. However, strategically they might be happy with the Dems to take control of the House in November and do their dirty impeachment work for them.
