Also makes it harder for GOPers to campaign on this, since it's now on the wrong side of the MAGAs. Ironically, it makes it easier for Dems to campaign on it, because it becomes a bipartisan effort (to pick up moderates) that was also done against Trump (to energize the Dems and lefties). I suppose moderate GOPers in purple seats can use it to say they bucked Trump, but again, see the problem of deflating the needed MAGAs for even those moderate GOPers.

Trump - club champion golfer (haha!) - has somehow managed to lip out this gimme.
