Perhaps but it will be much different than what they were hoping for.

They'll be a gnat...annoying at best but won't lean to the extent they were hoping for.

I imagine Msconstrew wouldn't trust you with a bet... which is probably a good metric to use.

You gonna bet or not? Don’t be a bitch.

Taking control of the House is exactly what the Dems wanted. This isn't a minor victory.

Yeah, I expected the house. Wanted the senate and all the governor races, but for the first time, trump has a real check on him.

He hasn’t gotten a thing done these past 2 years except tax cuts, but nothing will get done these next 2 years. The democrats (hopefully) will tie his crooked ass up.

Trump is going to lose his shit when the Dems get his tax returns :lol:

It is when the thinking was more control than they are getting.

Yes, it will most likely be a majority (pretty much everyone is projecting that now), but it's not as much as initially thought. That's minor and will alter the strategy that idiots like Pelosi were initially hoping for.

Also...hopefully the left will learn that celebrities need to STFU and do what they do best...entertain. LOL @ TSwift, Oprah & Ferrill.

I think Dems would have had a larger gain had these idiots just kept quiet. Kavanaugh also didn't help.

Next up...Ginsburg!

That's why keeping the senate (and possibly extending their lead there) seems much more important. Sure Democrats can ensure congress gets nothing done for the next two years but the senate has two years to confirm federal judges and possibly even replace a supreme court justice or two.

Democrats can scream impeachment until the cows come home but unless they have actual criminal evidence there is no way the senate is going to vote yes on such nonsense.

I think Dems will move more toward the center as 2020 comes closer. Crazy just doesn't work and this election shows that.

Republican's gain in the Senate is due to the stupidity of the left regarding Kavanaugh. House gain was mitigated as well. Add in the stupidity of TSwift and Hollywood and the underlying message to the left is...stop it.

All those subpoenas that were never given to people like trump jr, Roger Stone, kushner, etc? If the democrats do their job they’ll be given.

I’m not sure you understand the gravity of the situation.
