Trump may survive, but his support among the house and senate will be weakened because politicians don't want to lose.

Clinton and Obama survived this happening to them because the media supported them strongly. Trump doesn't have that. In fact, the media will probably be even more down on him if republicans lose the house, now without fear of being wrong again.

The only chance Trump has of continuing as he is occurs if the democrats win less that 24 seats.

My personal prediction is the democrats pick up 34 seats in the House. What do you think?
I honestly think that with the past & current election meddling it's nearly impossible to guage where things will go.

The vast majority of people are sick of Trump's BS, Democrats won a near record number of the special elections this last year. Ohio this week will be the canary in the coal mine. If the Democrat wins in the county where Trump won by 11 in '16 then we'll take at least 26 seats.
