New York Times: “In the House, Republicans have largely taken on the role of cheerleaders, rather than acting as a constitutional check on the president’s power. A competition of sorts has broken out for whom the Republican base will see as the most pro-Trump member.”

They must still find consensus to do the difficult tasks of cutting taxes, funding the government and passing a massive reconciliation bill.”
