“Those that worked with me in this incredible Midterm Election, embracing certain policies and principles, did very well. Those that did not, say goodbye!”
Meanwhile the Democrats will satisfy their malevolent, puerile impulses with subpoenas, investigations, etc. A one way street to nowhere. more here
Thank god we will never be subjected to Clairabel Fatskill anymore!
I think Republicans could have held the house if not for all the retirements and none action on immigration, border wall, Obamacare, tax reform (remember that one) and a dozen other concerns to the nation that the pols on both sides never really solve so they can run on reform as an issue.
It’ll take at least eighteen months for the green bean D’s in the House to find the bathrooms.
And the D’s just elected/reelected three people with felony investigations hanging over their heads. It’s no wonder they also elected the youngest person ever. What’s next for them, minors, people with no history at all?
I wonder if this Senate will confirm Democrat House budgets, or are we going back to “we don’t even have a budget!”
@Dr. Tar:
I agree.
A question or six:
who will be the Minority leader in the House now that Eddie Munster is gone? Is there a chance for the true conservatives to gain a greater foothold among the GOP congressmen? Will they align themselves more closely with the Pres or will they be appeasers, “working” (capitulating) with Pelosi and the other insane people on the Democrat side?
I hang the House loss primarily on the failures of Paul Ryan, The lack of funding by the Congressional Campaign Committee and lastly on the ingrained GOP establishment choices of candidates.
The next two years will be a shit storm of allegations, division and inaction, Paul Ryan’s legacy.
Sure hope Romney doesn’t become the new Flake
Vote fraud is still in progress with alleged “found votes.” Trump is finished! The system is so corrupt nationwide that the bad guys take elections like trick or treating on Halloween. It isn’t ever winnning. It is blatant stealing! USA going down under Communist power holders in office.
Man….. you people need a drink or some nitrous oxide or something.
Relax, we did fine. We’re not powerless and in fact, gained more powah in the senate. We didn’t even get our asses kicked in the house. Almost every president in history got their ass kicked in the congressional midterms.
Trumps doin’ fine. Let the house run around with their heads cut off. It’ll get them nowhere. Which makes them look even more ineffectual.
Yeah, it would have been great to keep the house, but I’m not gonna’ cry about it. We picked up senators and governors. So good on us.
Cato is exactly correct. Paul Ryan was as obstructive as any democrat and that goes double on the issue of immigration. He was well compensated by the Chamber of Commerce.
I’m so glad to see the last of that treacherous pig.
After some very long rants last night and a nice deep breath I stepped back from the edge and surveyed the battlefield. Its not so bad.
My bro-in-law won his election in SF, SD which is chock full of imported liberals these days, my friend won his election as state senator again, and we replaced many libs with conservatives. And we got our first female gov (R) elected, (she beat out the cowboy with the wheelchair )and replaced her in the House with another republican. Too bad those stupid squareheads in minnesota elected the muslim. Fools. Good thing water freezes in the winter or those stupid minnesotans would drown ice fishing.
Still reaping the benefits of Affirmative Action I see. She’s from PBS? Cut their funding NOW. What a waist of money.
With Ryan in charge, I guess there’s not much chance for some good old lame duck legislation to get rushed through before January.
