That is pure BS. Trump is a coward. He prefers to kill himself to become a martyr to his fans—he is gaining yuge weight every month, ...
So, Trump is a pig who cannot control his appetite and this makes him a man of courage?
Okayyyyyyy . . .

How's that Blue Wave working out for ya? So, you got the House, but you are losing seats in the Senate. It's a split decision, at best but I rather have the GOP control the Senate since we can still appoint judges and Trump will get the next Supreme Court nominee more easily confirmed after RBG either retires or drops dead.
Plus, for my home state of FL, it is looking like DeSantis will defeat that mega-socialist Gillum. And Bill Nelson may lose his long time Senate seat- too close to call............yet.
M-A-G-A!!!

looks like a gain of 35 seats in the house and a whole bunch of governorships.
call it whatever you want. the house in in the hands of the Dems so no one is going to run interference for the Trump crime syndicate anymore.
wave? pretty close. that's a lot of seats. spin away, magas.
and the models were pretty much dead on, by the way. Enough of this 'polls are sampled wrong' or whatever.
I hope the Donald enjoys the rest of his term. It should be..um....interesting.
Bwa....ha.....ha....ha...ha

Very well, thank you. You do realize that a +37 pick up of house seats (current avg prediction by 538) is definitely a "WAVE", don't you ? (and it was a yuuuge popular vote win for the Dems)
Dems getting the Senate was always an extreme long-shot.
Dems getting the House is yuuuge. Wait 'til they get Trump's tax returns. That will be the true beginning of the end for him.

Working out great. Republicans used modern technology to precisely gerrymander house districts all over the country.
We still overcame it and won.

Barry campaigned for Gillum & Nelson in FL. Gillum lost & Nelson is on the verge of losing his seat. Florida remains a red state and this is good for Trump in 2020.
This just in, McCaskill loses.
Beta boy O'Rourke loses too, Bahahahaha!!!!
Trump wins, Trump wins again!

That is just not accurate at all. Not even close. Yes CNN leans left overall. Yes, some of the anchors (hosts) are more liberal than others, but CNN has a bevy of Conservative contributors that are on constantly. Fox News doesn't do that, and CNN has no one who is the Democrat equivalent of Hannity or Pirro.
Truth right there. The host of FOX's highest rated show (Hannity) was literally on stage at a rally actively campaigning for Trump. Pretty surreal.
And I didn't even mention Tucker Carlson...just insanely partisan...just no comparison at CNN to Fox. Fox wins the bias contest EASILY.

Watching the votes come in exactly like I said they would, that's where.
And down go Faso (NY-19) and Tenney (NY-22)!
Down goes Jason Lewis (MN-2)! Defeated by Dem challenger Angie Craig
Ann Kirkpatrick projected winner in Arizona-2. DEM PICKUP.
Lauren Underwood the projected winner in IL-14, another stunner in an overwhelmingly white and reliably Republican district
Congratulations, Governor-elect Lujan Grisham!
Democrat Abigail Spanberger, a former CIA officer, defeats Republican Rep. Dave Brat in Virginia's 7th Congressional District
The results are good for my stocks, that's all I care about.

Meanwhile, the GOP gains another Senate seat. Joe Donnelly loses in IN.
Republican Mike Dewine has won Governor race in Ohio.
Mueller never

Kobach went down in Kansas, must have been all that voter fraud he couldn't find.

and the models were pretty much dead on, by the way. Enough of this 'polls are sampled wrong' or whatever.
1) The math for the Senate didn't really give the Democrats much of a chance there which is why I said Republicans would hold on to the Senate and likely add seats...and no that was not going out on a limb (weird that I have to say that here).
2) Things had been looking good for Democrats in the House for a while now, but this is not really a surprise as this kind of thing is common in a midterm election. The math favored the Democrats in the House. At least one person I responded to here said that Democrats would just barely take the House, and as of now the number of seats is 230 for Democrats, so that's a significant pickup...something I said would happen, so he was wrong.
3) I was never on board with the "Blue Wave" thing, and I don't think any reasonable person is calling this a blue wave.
4) Democrats can't declare this was a referendum on the Orange One, but they can be happy about taking the House. Republicans will try to downplay that, but it is important as far as putting a check on this criminal President for the next two years at least.
5) In the next Senate election, the map is more favorable to Democrats than it is this time, but since it won't be a midterm election, that goes against Democrats.
6) Neither party should be elated with the results. Democrats are better off than they were before the election, so there is hope for them, and Trump is scared about what the House will do now, so that is good and appropriate.
7) With the election of a lot of women, including two Muslim women and several other minorities for Democrats, it is clear that Republicans will need to find a way to court more voters other than white men.
8) The rest of the country could take a lesson from the Ohio Governor race, won by Republican Mike DeWine. Both he and Democrat Rich Cordray said seemingly sincere nice things about the other after the election was called for DeWine. Each called the other a "good public servant". On a running note, Mike DeWine has a 5k cross country course on his property that hosts a very popular high school dual meet each fall that has several teams come, and they run races with just two against each other at a time. Gives the kids a chance to actually run a dual meet...something that doesn't happen much anymore.
Trump and his family remain a criminal enterprise, and a continued investigation into his criminal behavior is necessary and should be cheered by all Americans. You never know when a criminal in the White House the level of Trump one day is a Democrat. We just can't stand for that kind of behavior.

Yep. He is a good guy with a great family and he will be a great governor.
