So unless the Democrats get back to the issues of the every day working families they lost their base. I think what happens over the next two to four years will decide if the Republicans can hold on to the voters they gained. Unless they get more done than they have showed so far. That probably wont happen. Well I say that, but if the Democrats keep up the crap they shown over the last 6 years....

they will lose these voters for a very long time.

It's make or break for them and to win back voters they (actually both parties) will need to show flexibility and start working to get things done. If they keep up the try to destroy President Trump at all cost...its over

I know a lot of you wont like this because depending on which side you fall on you hate one of these. But President Trump is a good mixture of Clinton and Regan and if those in congress would get passed the hate they will see it's good for both parties...the country. Now I hope the one thing President Trump does different than both of those. This war on drugs needs to be fought on a different front than lock them up throw away the key.

One thing I think President Obama (democrats) was on the right track....everyone that commits crimes don't deserve 15 to 20 years. It takes away room for those that really need that bed space.

Therein lies the problem. They could get 75% of their agenda passed and a majority of Americans would never hear about it. Unless it was coupled with the Dems usual hyperbolic statements about grandma, etc., then they'd hear about it. So your line I bolded is a red herring.
