Are there many safe districts for Republicans in the 2026 midterms, if Trump’s economy continues to crater?
In fact, multiple Republican lawmakers and aides have told me that an exodus of House Republicans is likely in the coming weeks—one estimate puts the number as high as 20 new announcements—with most retirements expected from members in safe Republican seats and thus unlikely to imperil the majority (the political environment or Trump could do that).
