Sometimes success is achieved through great pain and sacrifice. In the case of the GOP POTUS and Congress the dismantling of the EPA, ACA (Obamacare) and screwing their base (rural states) with Trumpcare. After the chemical companies and polluters have sunk so low in the public's eye that they're in danger of losing their operating permits and Trump voters lose their Obamacare coverage and find out that they have far less coverage for the same premiums or no coverage at all; the mid-term and next Presidential elections should go to the DNC. We just have to endure the pain for the next two to four years.
Of course Trump was elected by a populace that was willing to set aside facts, truth, self respect, ethics in the most ignorant election result in decades, so T-rump supporters may never know why their lives have turned so bad the next several years. No doubt their talk show stars and Breitbart will put the blame on the DNC minority and Obama (remember? he's that black man who faked his US birth to become president by 3 million illegal votes [ALERT: this is a satirical statement for those who don't get satire]).
Anyway people who are ignorant of history are doomed to repeat it. Nixon R-POTUS created the EPA at Chemical Companies' behest for more regulation to save their image; following the NYC smog incident and the Cuyahoga river fire. Reagan R-POTUS tried to dismantle the EPA which led to several appointments going to jail and a huge backlash against the GOP. Now T-rump is dismantling the EPA, the ACA and who know what else (SSI? TPP? NAFTA? T-TIP?).
I just hope T-rump screws his base good and hard for the next four years. Go T-rump go, no really go!
