      This is the Republicans' dilemma. They want to run on the economy, & even at an event held specifically to promote tax reform, Trump turns it into all immigration all the time...

      ...Now the counter will be: How do you think he won? And the answer is: An immigration riff won't help the GOP hold the districts that could cost the GOP its majority (the red districts that like this message are presumably safe.)...

      ...It's about emphasis. I'm not arguing POTUS' immigration policies are a problem. I am arguing that his emphasis on immigration, over the economy, plus his tone, won't help, & probably hurt, where the House is being contested...

      ...Note, still the potential for Trump's base-centric message to help the GOP win Senate races. But the map is already in their favor. Trump is ALREADY popular in these states. Base politics aren't that necessary. -fin-

      I think cutting corporate tax rates was right policy. But our country is in the process of being invaded by the third world and we can't go in if we keep bleeding working class jobs to China. Literally no one outside of clueless beltway wants to hear about tax cuts or 'growth'

      That's not true. Educated, upscale suburban districts that helped elect Trump president wants to hear about this. They don't hold your views on culture, immigration, etc. It's an issue in House races, though might be less so in Senate races given the map.

      I live in an elite suburban district. I meet Senators and Congressmen with small groups all the time. More people than you think hold my views on culture and immigration. The views of the large donors don't represent the views of the upscale districts you are referring to

      23 districts voted for Hillary - and in 2017 off year elections more suburban erosion. These are things that happened, otherwise I might agree w/ you on the politics of it.

      Here's what I've learned: The fat cat donors never, ever have their pulse on the issues that matter. Never ever. In fact, only one fat cat ever really understood the issues that matter... and he's now the President of the United States

      What matters and what works are two different things. You won't get an argument from me that donors are often clueless about real politics.

          Here's what I'm saying - the GOPe message about growth and taxes doesn't work. In a few districts? Sure. In states, no. Get someone with a 'nice' personality, but Trump's message and guaranteed winner. That's why it sucks so much that Josh Mandel dropped out. That race was 100%.

          I think you're right about presidential elections as a general rule (Romney proved that) and you argue well. My analysis is focused on this midterm, under these conditions, where btw Trump isn't on ballot.

          I hear ya. But the House is very gerrymandered and the Senate map is so favorable to the GOP (again, just so sad Mandel dropped out) that I think a Trumpian GOP will be fine. I might think Paul Ryan and Co. are trying to lose on purpose. But Trump is herculean and will help
