A MAGA President, a Majority in the House, yet Republicans are leaving in droves. I guess they're tired of hanging around while Trump rules by Executive Order.

Nine more Republicans are leaving than Dems. Is the Majority slipping away before the midterms?

Well, most of those leaving represent safely MAGA districts, so...new asshole, same as the old asshole.
I read in the New York Times that three of the Republican retirements present a possibility of flipping. The other six are safely goober-red.
However, two of the Dem retirements present flipping opportunities as well. Of course, more on either side may throw in the towel.
I think it's not really a positive, as the more moderate Republicans are the ones fed up and leaving. The radical right crudballs are wetting their panties in joy over Trump's murders at home and abroad. So the ultimate outcome may be an even more extremist loony bird House.
The Dems have to win back the House to at least slow down the destruction of our country.
