Trump will tweet stupid stuff, Paul Ryan will try to slash entitlements over the summer and it will backfire, Jared will get charged by Mueller, Trump's approval will near the 20's, Pelosi annouces she will not seek the speakership again, and the dems pick up 40+ seats along with NV, AZ, AZ (special), TX, TN while losing only MO leading to both houses being dem

What about the economy and will Trump get bipartisan support on infrastructure?

What about NAFTA?

Trump impeachment.

Given the craziness of the past few years, I might as well be bold Smiley.

Trump grows even more deranged.

Republicans continue to defend Trump, no matter what. (Even if Mueller produces an airtight case of lawbreaking by Trump himself.)

Deplorables continue to worship at the feet of their messiah, no matter what.

The Dems waffle and waver a little, but scenting huge gains in November, hold firm and don't opt for 'bipartisan' on anything but the most essential or critical legislation. (I'm being uncharacteristically optimistic here. I'll make up for that in a bit.)

The economy will continue to boom, and while there will be some hiccups, bubbles will continue to inflate. It will become the GOP's plan to blame any future crash on the Democrats, and they'll stand a decent chance of making it happen.

At least 5 members of the cabinet will leave by the end of 2018.

There will be a significantly higher than average number of lawsuits relating to the 2018 elections.

Trump gets into a major military adventure, either through aggression or stupidity. (As big as Libya or bigger, and with the US in front.)

Democrats narrowly take back the house, and have a net gain or net loss of 1 seat in the senate. Trump's approval rating stays steadily in the lower to mid 30s.
