With our without Trump, Republicans will gain in the Senate.... anyone who has a few neurons firing and knows ANYTHING about US politics should have been telling you that for years now...
The DEMS never had ANY shot at taking the Senate this fall... EVER.
The Dems are defending 24 seats this fall, Republicans are defending 9.. and more than a few of those Dem seats are in traditionally red, or states that have been trending more red ever cycle for decades.
My personal projection is R gain of 6 or more this fall in the senate.
If you want to know who’s likely going to be going by by with a D by their name this fall, look at the D’s who voted for Gorsuch and those that will almost certainly vote for Kavanaugh this fall.
McCaskill, Donnelly, Heitkamp, Manchin, Nelson and Tester are the most likely D’s to be gone...
The Senate was NEVER, EVER in play.. anyone telling you that is LYING to you, flat out, bald face, lying.
The only question in the Senate is simply how many seats will the GOP gain.
The House on the other hand is a different story, but the SENATE has NEVER been vulnerable.
