GOP Base Is Disgusted With Do-Nothing Congress

The midterm election is less than four months away, and Republicans hold majorities in both houses of Congress, yet their track record has been abysmal.

Other than the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” congressional Republicans have delivered little for their supporters. Republican voters are surely wondering why they gave the GOP the majority in both houses of Congress in the 2024 election.

President Donald Trump is doing everything he can, with a flurry of Executive Orders, but it is impossible to implement his ambitious agenda without the support of Congress.

This type of opposition occurred during his first term. Trump had a Republican Congress in his first two years. Other than the Trump tax cuts, Congress was unwilling to fund the President’s request for border wall construction and refused to end the nightmare known as the Affordable Care Act or Obamacare.

The result was that Democrats took control of the U.S. House of Representatives, winning 42 seats in the 2018 midterm election. House Democrats spent the next two years delivering nothing significant, but investigating and impeaching President Trump.

This same type of terrifying scenario could occur in the upcoming midterm election. On average, the President’s political party loses 28 House seats and six Senate seats in the midterm election of his second term.

If the Democrats can attain the historic average gain in the 2026 midterm election, their party will control both houses of Congress. This will mean a non-stop array of hearings, investigations, and impeachments for Trump and his administration.

No major bills will be passed to help Americans, but Democrats do not care about their constituents. Their party is fully infected with Trump Derangement Syndrome, or TDS, and is only interested in opposing the President........
