I'm so annoyed at Michigan.. but so happy Florida isn't retarded
but is it all voted yet? or can there still be flips?
Dems were banking on all those Puerto Ricans that came after the hurricane were going to give the D's the edge
I think the only things that can flip in the house are seats currently leaning red
aah
so no chance of making this house loss even smaller huh? 😛
nope
5 seats could flip blue still
damn
if they were gonna keep the house that wouldve been a complete rout
this was a minor victory for reps and a stalemate for dems
ye
No its win for dems
i just hope Trump picks 1-2 new Scotus in the next months :p
Its not a win because this was expected to happen
The house usually flips in midterm elections and the senate holds
generally speaking
Its a win because it did happen
No its a stalemate because they have control of the lower house, not the higher one
Same way as obama midterms were win for reps
Thats true
But legislation is stumped
Because of house
Same as wall funds
Yes in the 2010 midterms the republicans got 63 house seats and 6 additional senate seats
nothing is stumped
sign executive orders and be done with it
They walloped obama bad that time
Yeah thats what will happen
Thats major difference from 23 house seats for dems and 3 senate seats for republicans
Actually, picking better SCOTUS might be one of the most influential things Trumps gets to do.
Some things you cant do
at least now they got a better lead in the senate, making votes there much easier to pass
Like the citizenship for anchor babies
No chance of doing that now
The only thing that matters is how this translated into policy and law.
yes there is lol
If the demos got 3 senate seats i wouldnt hesitate to call it a win
trump can sign an EO
