The House any number that keeps the gavel in gop hands- the dems need 24+ for the gavel
No matter with Gerrymandering as it is GOP will win the House a in 2018 and 2020.MAGAKAGA
I expect GOP will have 56 or 57 Senate seats 1-20-19, still have the House, have Machin switch parties in 2019, and pick up a few more Senate seats to get to60 1-20-2021.

Like how I watched people think Hillary had a 98% chance of winning and they went into shock after the election.

But you want to keep believing Russia hacked the election to help put Donald Trump in the White House.

Plus Hillary's popular vote came from California and New York

Right. Keep on saying that to yourself. What you're actually doing is risking putting yourself into the mind frame of believing that the republicans have a 98% chance of gaining seats in the 2018 election, only to be let down, just as the Hillary supporters were.

Yes, Margins matter, but that same argument applies to Trump and any state he won by a large margin.

"Keep my red rubber ball again."


That simply makes no logical sense. You cannot do something "again" when you already have it.

This reply made absolutely no logical sense whatsoever. Are we already into a SECOND iteration of "making America great again?" What happened to the first one - did Trump already fail at that and is going to try again? IOW, you're saying, "We need to make America great again" ... AGAIN! That is, as you said, it's worth doing it twice, which implies that it was already tried, and failed, so now we need to do it again.
