Republicans take over Washington



To understand Donald Trump's potential to be a truly consequential president, it's necessary to grasp a fundamental reality of American politics today. His fellow Republicans are not only the ascendant party in Washington, they are the dominant party nationwide and at the state level.

"There has been an extraordinary collapse of the Democratic Party," says political scientist Bill Galston, a former White House adviser to President Bill Clinton.

This means there is a natural well of support for Trump's conservative ideas across the country, more than Democratic insiders had expected. If congressional Republican unite behind Trump, this could give him grass-roots momentum to push his 'ludicrous' agenda and overcome objections from defenders of the status quo in the capital.

Additionally, I will say that if Obamacare is not simultaneously replaced when repealed, analysts are predicting bankruptcy of insurance companies and massive insurance bailouts within the first 6 months of repeal. Obvious to say that this is just the beginning of many issues facing our country in a total non-judicial government control by Republicans.
