This is what I was getting at earlier, there was no blue wave.

Trump actually did way better than Obama in his first midterm

  • President Donald Trump on Tuesday night lost control of the House of Representatives.
  • Democrats seized at least 26 seats to gain a majority that could stymie his agenda and lead to investigation of his administration.
  • But he did way better than then-President Barack Obama in his first midterm election.
  • Presidents almost always lose a few dozen House seats in the midterms.Barack Obama lost 63 in 2010 and Bill Clinton lost 52 in 1994.
  • The elections haven't all been called yet, but Trump likely lost around 30 House seats, making it a pretty strong showing.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday night lost the House of Representatives to the Democrats, who seized at least 26 seats from the Republicans.

A majority-Democrat House threatens to stymie Trump's agenda and could lead to the investigation of his administration. But, all told, he didn't do so badly.

In midterm elections, a president's party loses a handful of seats. For former President Barack Obama, midterm elections in 2010 and 2014 were catastrophic compared to Trump's moderate losses.
 
He did, the left had to recruit phonys to win. All those suburban districts were won by moderate military vets.......this will be fun to watch.
 
Obama had Bushes shit economy getting shittier at the time .

Trump has “the greatest economy ever “ as he calls it .
 
If the never Trumpers wouldn't have been cowards he would have kept the house.

Tremendous winning.

Dubya’s 8 year disaster swung the pendulum so far left it was bound to come back hard. Democrats had 257 house seats to lose in 2010. Republicans this time had only 235 to lose.

He's the first president since JFK to actually gain seats in The Senate, and it looks like this will be the Largest Majority by any party in The Senate in 100 years. Add to that fact that The Governor's races in Ohio and Florida went GOP, and that is the first indicator he will be re-elected in 2020 (41). These seats were almost all Never Trumpers and RINOs, and were replaced by Right Leaning Democrats and Trump Friendly Republicans.

Also early indicators show that The GOP will pick up the other half of seats it lost to retirement by the 2020 election, and The Dems are already in jeopardy of losing their slim majority in a House that moved to The Right on both sides of The ISLE yesterday.
 
If the never Trumpers wouldn't have been cowards he would have kept the house.

Tremendous winning.
I don't understand why 41 of these RINOs took their ball and went home. But it's a Win Win, because they were RINOs and Never Trumpers and were replaced by Trump Friendly Republicans and Right Leaning Democrats.
 
Any guesses on what Pelosi means by unity? Lock step? She mentioned diversity too. Can you be diverse and still vote exactly the same as all the other Democrats in Congress?

The Blue wave failed.

Right Leaning Democrats were elected, and Trump Friendly Republicans were also elected. The House Majority is a very slim margin and The House just moved hard to the Right.

The slim Dem Majority is already in Jeopardy of being lost by 2020, with as many as 40-60 seats going back to the GOP.

The Dems in the House cannot afford to fight The President in The House like they did these last two years because they lost Ohio and Florida, and got their asses kicked in The Senate Races, and actually have a weaker House in regards to resisting The President's Agenda.

To hear them talk, they are making CONCESSIONS.....not taking a victory lap, and this is EXACTLY what is occurring.

Whatever helps you sleep at night! :113:
 
Obama and Democrats lost everything in 2010. Compared to 2010, Republicans and Trump had a great victory by gaining in the Senate. Another leftist Supreme Court Justice drops dead, the left will lose everything.

Moderate on their face. Let's see how they vote. I don't think moderate Democrats exist anymore.
