For the last year we have heard a blue wave or tsunami wave was clear and coming. It never happened. The biggest seat loss in the house was by Obama in 2010 with 63 seats. Second was 94 Clinton with 52 seats. This is just normal politics. There was no wave at all. The Senate has gained for the Republicans. Its even bigger than many realize because many never trumpers have been replaced with good republicans and remember that now trump does not relay on flaky flake to get SC or Federal judges put in. We can change the face of the courts for a generation.

None of that matters.

Dems control the House and will begin multiple investigations into Trump immediately. No way to spin that.

I fully expect this from the Democrats. I also expect that they will pay a deep price come 2020 should they choose the "investigate, not legislate" route for the next two years.

And will find what they've found for two years already: No evidence of anything illegal.

But their investigation will keep them occupied and out of the way while adults continue to fix what they broke.

Why that may be what you "fully expect," you will concede that you honestly have no idea what will happen. Neither do I. We will have to wait and see what happens in 2020.

What we DO know as fact is that dems have already said today that they will subpoena Trump's tax returns, they will investigate Trump/Russia, and they will investigate Devin Nunes. Those are facts.

Hey Newbie!

How do you feel about losing the House?

The endless punitive stretch of the Democrats will be their undoing come 2020. I'm not one for breathless predictions, but I strongly believe that their future depends on them immediately restructuring their efforts away from Trump and toward governing America again. If they double down on "orange man bad", they will only lose more voters. The Kavanaugh effect should serve as a lasting wound to remind them of this.
