Economic damage from Trump's tariffs could cause the Republicans to lose the House and maybe the Senate in 2026. They might even lose the majority in some Republican controlled state legislatures. Voters will blame the party currently in power. Democrats can run on deauthorizing all of the Trump tariffs and help to normalize international trade relationships. If Republicans lose control of the state legislatures then NPVIC could be in reach.
