From abortion bans to Obamacare cuts to, maybe, an empty Supreme Court chair, the Republicans already know exactly what they’ll do if they get control of both houses of Congress.

Passing a federal law banning almost all abortions after 20 weeks. Defunding parts of Obamacare. Weakening the Environmental Protection Agency.

Dittos on this prediction. I actually predict the establishment will pander even more to obama and the democrats. They are totally devoid of principal and a spine and are not fit to run a brothel.
