We also have other things at play.

Trump's base is slowly losing ground as they figure out Trump is nothing but talking. A perfect example of this is the wall he promised Mexico would pay for. We are a year into his administration, the wall hasn't even started, and we still haven't discussed how we are going to pay for this. The VA is a another example. He promised to fix it, and instead he fired five thousand VA employees that are difficult to replace. He made a number of promises and has failed to make good on them. Then factor in all of the bullshit and noise - he paid hush money to a porn star he was banging, and the Russian collusion.

Then.... Look at this from a statistical side... In the midterms where one party has both the White House and both Congress and the Senate, that party tends to fair badly in the mid-terms. Even more so with any Republican who sided with Trump - that will be a huge liability.

Whatever, this is disgusting on a daily basis. And every time Trump uses the term "space force" a little piece of me dies inside.
