3. Frankly I would expect Bobo or Mace to cave to pressure from Trump before

I would expect anything happening to MTG. But by all means, Marge, rile up your CT fans. What could go wrong, eh?

However, the margin is really just the one vote. Even after Grijalva is eventually sworn in, Massie + MTG + Bobo + Mace + all Dems just get it to the needed 218. If one is lost there is a vacant seat due to a deceased Dem having a special election in Nov (TX-18), but that is a 2-3 month delay. If two are lost there is no prospect.
