Also it looks god for trump in 2020
Both Ohio and Florida seem to lean to him

2018-11-07 10:03:45 UTC  

I just think that a lot of people here are jumping to the worst outcomes too quickly. It's pretty normal to lose house seats in the first midterm

2018-11-07 10:04:11 UTC  

If you step back and look at the large picture, things aren't looking pretty for the DNC

2018-11-07 10:04:38 UTC  

they keep backing the wrong horse

2018-11-07 10:08:41 UTC  

I just wanna see Hillary v Trump 2.0 in 2020

2018-11-07 10:09:46 UTC  

I don't think Hillary has another campaign in her

2018-11-07 10:09:52 UTC  

last one nearly killed her

2018-11-07 10:10:22 UTC  

They lost key governorships, they lost key senate races, most of the house seats they won were from neocons, a number of their potential candidates in 2020 got wiped

2018-11-07 10:12:34 UTC  

I wonder if losing the house would actually help Trump in the 2020 election

2018-11-07 10:12:49 UTC  

it probably will mean getting that wall is much harder though right now

2018-11-07 10:12:56 UTC  

even with a majority in the house that doesn't necessarily mean instant veto though right? or do dems literally autovote no on anything proposed by republicans?

2018-11-07 10:13:26 UTC  

I bet they would, just out of spite

2018-11-07 10:13:43 UTC  

yeah I was thinking that might actually be the case

Need 2/3 of the vote

SO it's kinda hard no matter what

2018-11-07 10:15:32 UTC  

ha

2018-11-07 10:15:42 UTC  

idk man Cruz seems kinda cool

2018-11-07 10:17:23 UTC  

Party allegiances aren't as rigid in the house as the senate

2018-11-07 10:17:43 UTC  

Reps from swing districts really have to watch themselves, unlike senators

2018-11-07 10:18:37 UTC  

Plus the die like fruit flies thanks to the term lengths

Rememeber the power of FREE SHIT

2018-11-07 11:03:20 UTC  

That 55 seat senate

2018-11-07 11:10:12 UTC  

can the house even do much?

Not anymore kiddo

2018-11-07 11:12:59 UTC  

At least Trump can blame everything on them

2018-11-07 11:13:32 UTC  

no i mean what is the job of the house?

2018-11-07 11:14:07 UTC  

i think they have budgetary powers

2018-11-07 11:14:45 UTC  

ah so they can stonewall the wall

2018-11-07 11:15:15 UTC  

Ironically the only people putting stones on the wall will be Democrats for the next 2 years.

2018-11-07 11:16:58 UTC  

They also vote on legislation, it goes to the house then they send it to the senate who change and vote on it. Then it goes back to the house to vote on the final bill

2018-11-07 11:17:17 UTC  

The senate is the only place where the repubs won

2018-11-07 11:17:32 UTC  

Best place to hold

2018-11-07 11:19:28 UTC  

Next time there will be more vulnereability

2018-11-07 11:19:32 UTC  

Whoops it’s 54 seat senate now

2018-11-07 11:19:38 UTC  

For the senate

2018-11-07 11:19:42 UTC  

this is typical though

2018-11-07 11:19:47 UTC  

Correct

2018-11-07 11:19:58 UTC  

If anything a Democratic house is good for Trump
