Playbook: “Six months from today, America will wake up to a new political reality. Nov. 4 — the morning after the midterms — is the moment Democrats expect the next phase of retaliation against Trump 2.0 … and the moment optimistic Republicans, at least, believe the president and his allies in Congress will be newly empowered to finish the job.”

“Today also marks six months on from the disastrous off-year elections that laid bare the scale of Republicans’ plight.

“There’s still no sign of the president showing the message discipline that Republicans need from their most powerful megaphone.”
