    Why does this matter? Bannon wants to run 2018 Roy Moores against more 2018 Luther Stranges. Incumbent Republicans will have a MUCH easier time fending off crazy primary challengers IF they can actually pass something.https://twitter.com/mattklewis/status/941697917290721280 …

    Another point: Anytime Congress functions properly, it is bad news for the forces of Steve Bannon. Bannon benefits from pointing to Congressional and Republican dysfunction. He wants failing institutions. https://twitter.com/mattklewis/status/941697306063261697 …

        Even if they pass something that most Americans and even most Republicans don’t like?

        The @GOP is toast in 2018. @realDonaldTrump is a Russian agent, McConnell, Ryan & the GOP #TaxScamBill steals from average Americans & gives to the rich. Can't wait till they start screwing with Medicare and Social Security.

        Also - very few incumbents are as poor politicians as Luther Strange

        Wasn't he an appointed incumbent? Ga. had one of those several years ago. He lost in a primary too.

        This tax cut polls worse than most tax hikes, no? Makes Obamacare look wildly popular at its passage.

        You're right in one way but yours is a process argument. GOP helps itself by passing stuff. But more important Q is, is it passing well-designed stuff that will have popular effects that benefit their voters or US as a whole. I'm not so sure.
