Furthermore, the President recently announced his infrastructure plan and budget proposal. Welfare reform, a subject of great partisan controversy, is also in the works.
Ultimately, the majority of the GOP believes the Trump administration’s foregoing economic accomplishments will help Republicans in the 2018 midterm elections.
