Add another.
The "normal" republicans in the House want no part of Trumpism, it appears.

And Texas GOP Rep. Mike Conaway is retiring after 15 years in Congress. This is the fifth retirement in two weeks. Ranking member of the agriculture committee and headed the intelligence committee when Nunes had to recuse (but really didn’t.)
West, Texas, so safe R seat, but man the casualty list is getting long and it’s not even post summer recess or end of the year when they usually decide.

most of the swing seats already flipped
The incumbent in GA-07 is Republican Rob Woodall, who won by only 400 votes and is not running again.

I don't know about that. Many people say the My Pillows aren't that great, contrary to what he has advertised.
Perhaps your friends hate the fact that My Pillows are made in America, and not Communist controlled China.
All of our My Pillows are heavenly.
You should try one for yourself, if you don’t mind supporting Americans, that is.

House GOP fears retirement wave will lead to tsunami
https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/455201-house-gop-fears-retirement-wave-will-lead-to-tsunami
House Republicans plotting to win back their majority in Congress fear they are on the brink of a massive wave of retirements that could force them to play defense in a high-stakes presidential election year.
Three House Republicans said last week they would not seek another term next year, catching party strategists off guard. Those announcements came earlier than in a typical election cycle, when members who are ready to hang up their voting cards usually wait until after the August recess or after the Christmas break.
Republicans in Congress strategizing to win back the House say the rush to the exits reflects the depressing reality of life in the minority and a pessimistic view of the GOP’s chances of regaining the majority.
“We are in the minority. That is never much fun in the House,” said one senior Republican member of Congress, who asked for anonymity to provide a candid assessment. “The odds are against us retaking the majority.”
I wouldn't be surprised to see the GOP lose a ton of seats in 2020. People are pissed at Trump.

NOPE.
DCCC targeted districts for 2020 include Duncan Hunter, Carter, Marchant, McCaul, Roy, Hurd, Fitzpatrick, Brooks, Upton, Barr, Nunes, Collins, King (both Peter and Steve), Zeldin and on and on.

Not to be underestimated. I’m betting for most of these Rs this is their first time in the minority.

“Each of the 62 freshmen House Democrats has raised more money than their top opponent. The same is true for all 31 Democrats from districts Trump had won in 2016, and for all 39 Democrats who snatched Republican-held seats last November.”

Safe Republican seat.
Rob Bishop of Utah, ranking member of the House Natural Resources Committee, also just announced that he’s retiring. UT-01 is another safe Republican seat.
