It has been a long day. Worked in Columbus, drove to Indy to work for the elections, drove back to Columbus, and now trying to comprehend all the election news I missed. I was was hoping that things would have been a bit more concise, but I am not going to be sad since we won the House. Let’s also hear it for the 100+ women going to Congress. Let’s wrong this thing. #wonderwoman #tired #democrats #housemajority #midtermelections2018 #dorkface (at Union Cafe) https://www.instagram.com/therealnickmurphy/p/Bp3rWWPnsi_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=xc3pwms5b3t6

The Republican exodus continues
President Donald Trump's stunning victory was regarded by many Republicans as the possible beginning of a new era of GOP dominance. It's been the exact opposite. When Trump was inaugurated, there were 241 Republicans in the House. With the retirement of Florida Rep. Ted Yoho on Tuesday, 104 of them have either retired, been defeated or are not running again in 2020, according to stats provided by Cook Political Report House editor David Wassermann. That's a remarkable number. Almost half (43%) of the Republicans who were in the House when Trump became the 45th President are either already gone or in the process of going. Now, not all of that attrition can be directly attributed to Trump. There is always some level of turnover in Congress as people run for other offices, retire or get enmeshed in scandal and leave. That goes double when your party goes from the House majority to the House minority, which is what happened for Republicans in the 2018 midterms. Being in the House majority is great. Being in the House minority is brutal; you have almost no control of your schedule and no ability to move meaningful legislation of any sort. But Trump bears at least some responsibility for his party's losses in the 2018 election, as Democratic candidates across the country -- and especially in the suburbs -- ran against him and his version of conservatism as much as they did against their actual opponents. And Trump bears even more responsibility for the ways in which his behavior has made serving in Congress hugely challenging for Republicans. Trump has staged a hostile takeover of the party, moved it away from its small-government, fiscally minded past and made clear that anyone who criticizes him or steps out of line is going to pay a political price. That's not what I would describe as a fun work environment. And lots and lots of Republicans are deciding they want to be anywhere but there. The Point: Trump's drastic rebranding of the GOP has consequences. And the stunning level of turnover we've seen just since he's been elected is a big, bright shining consequence.
