The majority looks to be identical to two years ago (and ironically identical to what Pelosi led two years before that)

But the handful of rebels had far more power when Democrats controlled the Senate and White House because they were blocking compromises with the other side. Now it will be Trump’s agenda and a supportive senate. Recalcitrant nutjobs won’t be blocking Maga proposals… any risk to the majority will have to come from moderates.
