Historically the party that won and now controls everything looses voter % in the following election and normally looses the lower houses. Clinton lost congress after two years, Obama lost congress after 2 years, trump lost congress after 2 years.

Trump will loose congress in two years, its what happens. Thats also why he is going nuts now, as he knows he only has two years of having congress. Its simple the party in power does not turn out to the vote, the party not in power does.
