Just have to avoid recount territory now which appears very likely.

Jones should counteroffer an equestrian competition.

No he won't. He got elected because 1) Trump is a trainwreck and people are watching and 2) Moore is disgusting obv.

Plus the tax bill is wildly unpopular.

Forgetting policy - are you seriously making an argument it's better for him politically to vote for the tax bill?

I do think it is going to serve as wind in the sails for midterms action.

Problem for trump is his core base partly likes him because they think he is a winner (which is lol). But he has been taking beatings pretty much non stop his first year and that can impact a small segment of voters.

I think a lot has been learned in the past 18 plus months that will impact our political system for a long time. Still going to take a massive amount of work. 63% of white woman voters in Alabama voted for Moore. That is just messed up.
