Democrats lost over 1000 seats nationally across all levels of government. Republicans have a record number of State Houses (69 of 99), and more Governorships than in the last 99 years (34 of 50)... and the Dems are poised to lose about 10 more Senate seats next year (using the Trump map, the GOP loses NV and picks up 11 other states with Senate seats up for grabs in 2018, making it 62-38... the Dems haven't had 62 in the Senate since WWI). But yes, they did pick up 6 seats in Congress, out of the 69 they were behind. Now it's only 61 total. Good job!
and the presidential election was lost only because of Trump's bizarre and extraordinarily narrow path to victory in the electoral college.
Narrow? 306-232 is narrow?
