53% : The withdrawal of Rep. Elise Stefanik's (R-N.Y.) nomination to be UN ambassador is putting a spotlight on the House GOP's razor-thin majority and the anxiety about upcoming special elections to replace Trump's Cabinet picks.
47% : Trump and congressional Republicans have a tough task ahead as they work to craft and advance his ambitious legislative agenda on tax cuts, energy priorities, spending cuts, and a debt ceiling increase in "one big beautiful bill" that will allow them to use a special reconciliation process that bypasses the need for Democratic support.
47% : Trump wants Republicans to raise the nation's borrowing limit without Democratic help so as to not give the minority party any negotiating leverage, and so House Republicans included a debt limit hike in their budget resolution framework for the "one big beautiful bill.

27% : The House breakdown numbers will change again after a Tuesday special election in Florida for vacancies created by two former lawmakers who Trump chose to be in his administration: The 6th District vacated by now-national security adviser Mike Waltz, and the 1st District vacated by former Rep. Matt Gaetz, who withdrew from consideration for Attorney General the week after Trump made the pick.
