Fun fact for you, President Trump just pulled off what only 4 other Presidents did in 105 years. He gained Senate seats in a first midterm.

Every other President who did so had a unique set of facts helping them. Trump’s victory is unprecedented.

This was always going to be a tough fight. It’s never going to be easy and there never is gong to be a safe haven.

Liberty requires constant fighting.

Oh, Reagan lost 27 House seats in his first midterm in 1982. His poll numbers were just about where Trumps are now. He went on to win 525 electoral votes 2 years later.
