Like I said, I am beginning to think along the same lines as "likely" what I previously hoped as "improbable."  Now the question to me is whether Republicans will start breaking away from Trump and trying to minimize his impact on the party's re-election prospects like we saw with the last years of W's administration.  Or will they keep hoping that Trump is even capable of change because they still hold out on him as being the avenue to push through their legislative agenda?
