I'm so annoyed at Michigan.. but so happy Florida isn't retarded

2018-11-07 09:24:14 UTC  

but is it all voted yet? or can there still be flips?

2018-11-07 09:24:22 UTC  

Dems were banking on all those Puerto Ricans that came after the hurricane were going to give the D's the edge

2018-11-07 09:24:44 UTC  

I think the only things that can flip in the house are seats currently leaning red

2018-11-07 09:24:53 UTC  

aah

2018-11-07 09:25:12 UTC  

so no chance of making this house loss even smaller huh? 😛

2018-11-07 09:25:29 UTC  

nope

2018-11-07 09:25:36 UTC  

5 seats could flip blue still

2018-11-07 09:25:43 UTC  

damn

2018-11-07 09:26:50 UTC  

if they were gonna keep the house that wouldve been a complete rout

2018-11-07 09:27:05 UTC  

this was a minor victory for reps and a stalemate for dems

2018-11-07 09:27:14 UTC  

ye

2018-11-07 09:27:38 UTC  

No its win for dems

2018-11-07 09:28:04 UTC  

i just hope Trump picks 1-2 new Scotus in the next months :p

2018-11-07 09:28:44 UTC  

Its not a win because this was expected to happen

2018-11-07 09:29:14 UTC  

The house usually flips in midterm elections and the senate holds

2018-11-07 09:29:17 UTC  

generally speaking

2018-11-07 09:29:21 UTC  

Its a win because it did happen

2018-11-07 09:29:45 UTC  

No its a stalemate because they have control of the lower house, not the higher one

2018-11-07 09:29:49 UTC  

Same way as obama midterms were win for reps

2018-11-07 09:29:58 UTC  

Republicans gaining control of it opens the path for appointments

2018-11-07 09:30:10 UTC  

Thats true

2018-11-07 09:30:32 UTC  

But legislation is stumped

2018-11-07 09:30:39 UTC  

Because of house

2018-11-07 09:30:49 UTC  

Same as wall funds

2018-11-07 09:31:13 UTC  

Yes in the 2010 midterms the republicans got 63 house seats and 6 additional senate seats

2018-11-07 09:31:27 UTC  

nothing is stumped

2018-11-07 09:31:35 UTC  

sign executive orders and be done with it

2018-11-07 09:31:36 UTC  

They walloped obama bad that time

2018-11-07 09:31:48 UTC  

Yeah thats what will happen

2018-11-07 09:31:50 UTC  

Thats major difference from 23 house seats for dems and 3 senate seats for republicans

2018-11-07 09:31:53 UTC  

Bet mer.at

2018-11-07 09:32:01 UTC  

Actually, picking better SCOTUS might be one of the most influential things Trumps gets to do.

2018-11-07 09:32:04 UTC  

Some things you cant do

2018-11-07 09:32:17 UTC  

at least now they got a better lead in the senate, making votes there much easier to pass

2018-11-07 09:32:25 UTC  

Like the citizenship for anchor babies

2018-11-07 09:32:35 UTC  

No chance of doing that now

2018-11-07 09:32:39 UTC  

The only thing that matters is how this translated into policy and law.

2018-11-07 09:32:40 UTC  

yes there is lol

2018-11-07 09:32:43 UTC  

If the demos got 3 senate seats i wouldnt hesitate to call it a win

2018-11-07 09:32:46 UTC  

trump can sign an EO
