    Trump shed the only thing holding him back, the 2-3 fake R's who keep going left won't be a factor anymore. The Senate is a lock now, even if a couple R's vote left on something. Legislation is going to fly through and nobody can stop it. The lefty courts will now be over-ruled by SCOTUS on all of their anti-Constitutional politically-motivated rulings.

    The House has no real power in the end, all they can do is obstruct and throw crap at the President which will just make them look so ridiculous they'll lose the House next time around.

    However, none of those Presidents had a booming economy when they lost their House members.

    The House has to vote on any legislation. That's who can stop it.

    You few who are pretending like the republicans won like a delusional denialridden Trump are mistaken.

    The Senate republicans were not in Jeopardy of losing the senate in 2018. They won 2 seats from democrats in Indiana and North Dakota, two heavy red states. Not a surprise.

    Dems won the house taking 30+ seats

    In the 2020 senate election there are 33 seats to be up for reelection. 22 by the republicans, 11 by the Dems. Non of the dems will really be in jeopardy. They are all in mostly democractic states. There will be at least 9 seats in jeopardy for the republicans in Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Iowa, Maine, Kentucky, Montana, Texas, and North Carolina.

    Trump will not be reelected. The republicans lost the midwest. They lost the house. In 2020 they will lose the senate and presidency.

    As he said, "it is historical facts from previous elections with no commentary".

    But you're right, reality is a Pro-Trump.

    I'm gonna disagree. The Republicans did it to Obama and they just gained seats. I wonder how much all the Gerrymandering had to do with it.

    And yet, the best Dems could muster and still better than anyone else in their quiver now. Socialists and an old guy who fondles children on stage have no prayer against her in the primary.

    If she runs, she will crush the primary and get crushed by Trump.

    How about a candidate who tries to kiss Pence and Putin and professes love for Kim Jong-un?

    Don't overlook the many Dems who won by running on a promise of working with the President and who agree with many of his policies.

    Maybe they weren't lying? :dunno:

    Someone already posted that. Again all it shows is that Trump is afraid. He gas something to hide. He is using threats to try an intimidate the dem controlled house. If he there was nothing he wouldn't give 2 shits or feel the need to tweet that.
