Last I checked they're still picking up seats.

You're correct to the extent that when (if?) the ship is clearly seen to be sinking AND they start losing seats, this experiment will go in the trash can.


But they have to start losing seats first, and we're not there yet.


Somebody said something about offering good candidates and running taut, efficient campaigns, but really, how could something that radical, strange, alien, bizarre, otherworldly, stupid, contrary, illogical, confusing and unlikely ever work ??
Not exactly, they barely kept a seat in Georgia that have historically won by double digits by a mere four points; six months after they won it by twenty three points.

Anyways, IF Flynn was colluding with Russian cyber-spies then it will be the biggest scandal in US politics, and the public will not receive the news kindly. It will prove Trump is a lying criminal even to many fanatics. During Watergate the Republicans supported Nixon through Liddy, Hunt, Dean, and company. It was only when Nixon went ape shit and held the Saturday Night Massacre that GOP support was gone, and at the point the GOP was looking for any way to get Nixon removed from office.

Could Trump do something similar and try to fire the FBI team of special prosecutors? Though it sounds unthinkable, nobody though he would fire Sally Yates or James Comey. Nobody thought he would try to do exactly what Nixon did and use Dan Coats and Mike Rogers as pawns to interfere in the FBI investigation. And certainly nobody imagined him literally blowing the cover story of Rosenstein and confess on NBC that yes, Comey's firing was because of his investigation into his campaign.

We can only watch.
