Increasing our seats in the House and Senate is a win for President Trump.

DemocRats have to defend 26 Senate seats while Republicans only have to defend 8. Several of those DemocRat held seats are in states carried by Trump.

“Increasing our seats in the House and Senate is a win for President Trump.”

A +1 gain in the House will be enough to drive liberals crazier.

I want to see a massacre in the Senate. The Republicans have an opportunity to clean the Dem’s clocks in 2018. If the elites get out of the way, this can happen.

Of course they will ...unless McConnell & Ryan and the entire GOP open-borders/globalist establishment go to war with the ascendant populous patriotic wing of the party..

The truth about how Obama and team abused our intel community and government is coming to light day by day.

We at FR knew what Obama and team were up to. The law meant nothing to the Democrats because the end justified the means in their minds.

So "Beware fans...manure is on the way!"

Trump hasn't even gotten started exposing their BullShiite.

And don't give me this crap that Jeff Sessions is asleep. The wheels of justice turn slowly because the law is more than just sentences in the books.

There is also (and perhaps more importantly) the perception of fairness and justice.

Sessions is moving slowly because he is laying the groundwork for a takedown of a big chunk of the FBI and DOJ.

In some cases it has to be different Republicans.

Corker and Flake have already quit.

Hatch and Heller must be removed for their amnesty votes or they will do it again.

Anyone who votes for amnesty should get primaried.

Yes, we need gains in both the House and the Senate!

60 Senate seats can be done!

That is what I would like to believe.
Sessions was too good a Senator to be what appears to be a bad AG. Good ones keep their mouth shut and get convictions.
I hope that is what he is up to.

Sessions is a Southern gentleman and they are almost always misunderstood (I am one and have some experience at this).

Sessions is a man of honor...he will do what is right.

Anything short of gaining back both the house and senate would be a huge embarrassment to the dims. Like 2002 after the Wellstone funerally. If I had a choice though, I’d say let them have the house. I’ll take the confirmation of judges. Let Nanzi and her nutty friends impeach POTUS. It’ll be hilarious and they’ll never get the votes to remove, and it will further vouchsafe MAGA in 2020.

That is an easy prediction for Rush...
we should easily get an R +5 in the Senate.

"Hatch and Heller must be removed for their amnesty votes or they will do it again."

I'd like Hatch to stay in the Senate because he keeps Romney out of the job.

Better for Romney to spend the rest of his life on the equestrian dressage circuit than in the US Senate.

“Well, I can’t believe it! Look at this turnaround. All of a sudden, every Republican you talk to wants to defend Donald Trump and wants to go out and attack the deep state to one extent or another.”

I think that it has finally sunk in to the Republicans that they are in the Majority.

Recall, Bob Dole didn’t really get it, when they took the Senate in ‘94, he continued to act as a Minority Leader, and idiot Trent Lott gave up the leadership to Daschele when he didn’t have to.

I think McConnell, like him or not, gets it now.

Thanks Kaslin. There's even a good shot with the seats being vacated by detritus like Flake and Corker.

The same happened with Reagan’s first term. A lot of Republicans didn’t care for Reagan, then they saw him winning, then they climbed on board the bandwagon.

I AGREE WITH RUSH WHOLEHEARTEDLY.

And I'm going to work like a deranged mf to make sure we increase our share of both houses. It's the only way to ensure MAGA ... which to my mind is a 7-2 SCOTUS ...

“The thing that’s been the most perplexing to me is so many people that I used to think were on my side have believed all along that Trump did collude or that there was a good chance he did. And you know why? Because even though these people claim to be conservatives, they just have a blanket acceptance of government institutions and whatever they say and do, and I don’t understand how there is no questioning of it or suspicion.”

Rush evidently has two problems here:
1) He needs to better vet his friends, because they’re stupid
2)They really never were conservatives

To: Grampa Dave

here's some retrospective perspective:
FReeper Grampa Dave perhaps said it best:
If Hiterily gets elected with enough votes in Congress, these will be the good old days.

The purists, who will stay at home because our candidate couldn't walk on water without getting the soles of his Teva's wet will have gifted us with another Clintoon pillaging.
