Nothing will get past both the Senate and House so Repubs have no agenda.

The Dems will investigate everything giving Repubs the choice of sticking with trump or acting independent of him.

Repubs will have to run someone against trump in 2020. Pence could be their pick. Giving Pence a few months in office before the election is in their favor.
