Republicans fear disaster in November | TheHill
November couldn't come soon enough.
Republicans are privately fearing the worst possible outcome in November, one that could leave them without the White House or a majority in either chamber of Congress next year.
House Republicans face numerous, almost insurmountable obstacles: a cash shortfall against the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, 27 retiring lawmakers and a Republican National Committee that is more focused on reelecting President Trump and protecting the Senate GOP majority. They also need to pick up a net 17 seats to win back the House.
While Republicans noted the political landscape appears to change by the day, some are expressing a growing sense of doom.
“If the election were today, we would lose the House, the Senate and the White House,” said one Republican source.
