Why the GOP Taking Back the House Is So Important

So, as the midterm election postmortems, finger-pointing, blame-gaming, and other signs of disappointment continue to roll in, I just want to say that really the most important point right now is that the GOP is going to take back the House. That is beyond just important. It is incredibly important. It is “repeal the Biden big-government socialism agenda” important. It is “open the oil and gas spigots” important. It is “stop the inflationary federal spending” important. It is “stop tax hikes and move toward making the Trump tax cuts permanent” important. It is “economic growth” important. It is “close the border” important. It is “tough on crime” important. It is “parents should run their children’s schools” important. It is “free-market capitalism” important. Let’s try not to forget this. I know a platoon is not as big as a cavalry, but the “take back the House platoon” is plenty important. There are other issues out there, of course. The GOP’s got to figure out how to deal with this Democratic mail-in ballot harvesting scam. Frankly, there’s a certain amount of Trump fatigue going on (though I still love him for all his achievements — once again: Make the Trump tax cuts permanent). The Herschel Walker runoff is still very important in terms of Senate power-sharing. Now is absolutely not the time to start attacking the House Republican leader, Kevin McCarthy, though perhaps the Senate GOP leadership vote should wait until after the Georgia results are in. Let’s not forget, in the Senate it was the GOP defending 20 of 34 seats. Next time around, in 2024, the Democrats are going to be defending two-thirds of the seats. So, it’s complicated. The GOP out-polled Democrats nationwide, but it didn’t translate nearly as much as hoped. The single most important item — once again — is a Republican House. It is a tremendous opportunity. Let’s hope the House platoon seizes it.From Mr. Kudlow’s broadcast on Fox Business News.
