Well, the night didn't go quite as well for team red as I hoped, but could have been worse. Looking like we gained a few seats in the senate. Would have been nice to take the house as well, or at least have a smaller gap in the house, but it is what it is. I'm glad my district went 60/40 in favor of the GOP candidate.

Don't worry, Trump has the supreme court and he can just do executive orders. Also, we now have the ability to blame Democrats if anything goes wrong.

I was just thinking about this. Trump now essentially has a scapegoat with the Dems controlling the house.

"Things not going well? No progress being made? It's the Dems' fault!"

And if I know the Dems like I think I do, they will spend their time w/ House majority coming up with more Russian conspiracy theories, investigations into Trump, and trying to obstruct what he does, which will only work to create a voter backlash against them come 2020.
