Context!

As the 2020 election gets closer, Republicans who are up for re-election have to weigh whether sticking with the president in an unpopular cause is going to hurt themselves politically or wind up helping them. Such schisms usually don't appear just before an election, it's worth noting.

See, DH, the context here matters because CW is talking about whether or not the spineless GOP legislators will choose to either buck or suck the Orange Cheeto "as the 2020 election gets closer."

The "national emergency" wall issue isn't going away anytime soon and will define the 2020 election because neither the shutdown nor the "national emergency" are about a stupid wall; they're about whether or not the spineless GOP will remain the mindless cult of personality of Comrade Con Artist Benedict Donald Treasonous Trump.

More immune to outside influence. Smaller (by a bit), but hey, that's politics. They still have the electoral college to depend on! So bring it on, right?
