I'd say it was business as usual. It's a normal midterm election outcome with the president's party losing votes. It was neither a huge win for the Republicans, as Trump tried to suggest on Twitter, nor a big democratic wave with dramatic losses for the incumbent's party. Pretty standard, actually.

Yep. Not a total disaster for Trump, but it makes it much more likely that, policy-wise at least, he's just going to end up a standard-issue Republican president rather than the game-changer many of his supporters were hoping for.
