I don't know, you may be right... but I don't think the press is gonna let this one go anytime soon. Its too easy. Too juicy. It has all the elements needed to really invigorate and galvanize those that would otherwise stay home and sit on the couch.
The midterms really aren't that far off. The MSM wants Trump impeached. For that to happen, step one is to take control of Congress. There is no way the press is gonna let this big fat meatball get away anytime soon. Infants and toddlers in secret interment camps that the press can't see!!!??? They couldn't have dreamed anything better. No f'n way this one dies.
And one can only fathom a guess as to the magnitude of what would shift the spotlight here. I mean it would have to be like Kim testing a missile that lands on downtown Tokyo to (trump) babies in cages.
I think its a safe bet the House falls in November.
In support of your assertion about the House & Senate related to this immigration issue...
Wall Street Journal warns GOP may lose House and Senate over immigration
http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-brief...nal-warns-gop-may-lose-house-over-immigration
The Wall Street Journal's editorial board
warned Republicans on Tuesday that the GOP could lose their House and Senate majorities over immigration in November and called for an end to a Trump administration policy that has resulted in family separations at the southern border.
"This is self-destructive politics. This year is the GOP’s best opportunity for immigration reform in a decade," the editorial board wrote.
"If Republicans lose their House majority, they will have less leverage when the Supreme Court rules on legalization for Dreamers. If the Obama program is upheld, Mr. Trump won’t have obtained money for his border wall or anything else," it added, referring to young immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally by their parents.
The board notes the divide in the GOP over the issue of immigration, citing the controversial Trump administration policy that has resulted in the separation of migrant families at the southern border.
"As for November, House control will be won or lost in swing districts where legalizing the Dreamers is popular and separating families isn’t. Members like California’s Steve Knight and Florida’s
Carlos Curbelo need to show voters that they’re working toward a solution for Dreamers," the board said. "The smart play is for Republicans to show they can solve at least some immigration problems."
"If Mr. Trump wants to lose the House and risk impeachment, he’ll take [former White House chief strategist Stephen] Bannon’s bad advice and keep giving Democrats a daily picture of children stripped from their parents," the board continued.
"The immediate solution should be for the Administration to end 'zero-tolerance' until it can be implemented without dividing families."
House Republicans have rushed to
resuscitate their immigration plan after
President Trump sent mixed signals about which measure he supports. Trump
suggested on Friday that would not sign the more moderate compromise legislation planned for a vote this week.
Trump is set to
meet with House Republicans on Tuesday to discuss a GOP bill shielding young immigrants from deportation.
