They don't have a veto proof majority,they dont have enough votes to remove him if impeached, and there are lots of ways President Trump can govern by executive order and bypass them completely. Keep fighting!

Can we at least agree that Republicans got a NEGATIVE mandate?
Well said.
The DSA’s will act like they have a mandate and exercise an outside influence.

Put your fkin head in the sand. Complete fail.
The biggest thing Trump can do to help Republicans is get this war in Iran over with.
His economic agenda is working, the economy is picking up, get gas prices back to under $3/gallon, which will help inflation, and the economy growing a 3-4% and things will look a lot better for Republicans.
Yeah, keep pounding Iran till November 2028 for more epic winning!
What would stop the democrats from nuking the filibuster so they can impeach and remove Trump? I expect them to do that right off.
This was an anti-Trump vote all the way and not a confirmation that America accepts the Democrat agenda, but no way to spin this result though. The GOP got its clocks cleaned tonight!
I would agree this is lame duck territory but for all the impeachment proceedings democrats will do. They might just wait out the clock though and bank hard on deadlock and blaming Trump and then trying for 2028.
“What would stop the democrats from nuking the filibuster so they can impeach and remove Trump?”
They will nuke the filibuster but they cannot change the Constitution.
They don’t have 60 votes.
I don't know about that. Trump is a liability now. You'd better believe the MAGA magic is over. A historic opportunity squandered, pissed away over broken promises, "Big Announcements!" that never materialized, and a war with Iran that nobody asked for.
Probably the most prudent course of action he could take is to resign and let JD Vance clean up his mess (he will do no such thing though).
We’ve seen this before. When asked, the leftists, never could really answer why they voted for someone.
I’m just hoping Thomas and Alito stay healthy.
Why did this so called republican surge today vote for Democrats?
Presidents lose midterms almost always.
The filibuster has nothing to do with impeachment.
