>>this might be a good time for Huber and Horowitz to release their investigations - people like SchifforBrains might have to take a powder....
*********************************************************
With Schiff in charge, it won’t matter. All will be swept under the rug. If they have the House, they have the control. It’s just beyond horrendous that these crazies are anywhere near power in this country. God help us all, and especially our President. Soros is smiling tonight.

Nope.

Unless Espy gets 50% +1 it will be a runoff.

I don’t know what you mean. The SC is unaffected and PDJT can drop the hammer on Rosenstien and Sessions. The Senate approves their replacements. That effectively shuts down the SC.

PDJT can still order the un-redacted FISA docs and that could lead to indictments, which is one of the scenarios circulating. And he won’t have to give a hoot about what the House thinks.

So there may be some justice, after all. We’ll know soon enough.

What sucks now is all the investigations into 2016 are shut down. they got away with their coup. No justice

The Senate has oversight too. They can continue investigations.

Plus, as long as Nancy Pelosi is going to go full-out impeachment mode, President Trump can fire Sessions, Rosenstein, Wray, AND declassify and release unredacted all the FISA docs.

Sage wisdom: the Dems were *desperate* for anything they’d be able to call a win.
But all of their highest visibility challengers and candidates,*lost* (except Manchin, who voted for Kavanaugh).
I hope Stabenow stumbles next...

I understand. Husband and I have lost all 4 parents in the last 8 years. Hubs has sisters here but my only sibling has been overseas for 40 years. Not much anchoring us here after he retires except for my love of the midwest. I’m a weirdo! Love the people and love the seasons! It’s what I know.

Then all straight married men have committed adultery because you can't stop all thoughts. That doesn't mean it's healthy to obsess about it. The bible was written in a language that doesn't translate word for word into English.

You take what you can get.

Trump has coattails. Obama had none. Now we need to work to re-elect him and regain the House in 2020.

“The best part of it all is that with the Senate solidly Republican, the democrats can’t remove Trump from office which is what they have been dreaming of since Dec of 16.”

It depends on what Mueller has. The senate is solidly rino and neverTrumper. If mueller delivers something devastating to congress, the senate will have to uphold the rule of law dontchaknow[translation: the repukis want Trump gone as much as the dems]

Yes, they wanted to stop Trump from leading the GOP! What they don’t understand is that when he is gone, so is the GOP.

“Data” was presented though that seemed to be “real”. I don’t want to attack the messenger, I’m sure he feels worse of all. If you are reading this, love you man.

Elections are weird things because people are weird things.

Yet all we heard here in FL was that close to 20 percent of Rs were splitting the ticket and voting for Gillum.

We get one, maybe two more SC Justices

As bittersweet as parts of tonight's results may be, with a true lock on the Senate, THAT is the crux for America's foreseeable future !

You are correct that the Senate can block socialist schemes hatched by the House. The flipside is that House can and will disrupt the Trump agenda.

It will automatically be a runoff between two highest vote getters unless one of them gets 50%+1.
