The pig won with no mess on him

[spotthebird]

Yes, democrats will spend the next few years begging for his tax returns. After much fanfare something will be released that is already known and although a crime, just doesn't matter.

Meanwhile the opposition will pretend shock and outrage about this invasion into the very records Trump said he would release voluntarily. This circus will continue for years, obfuscating the content of the trivial number records provided to the committee.

He still has all the power. Nothing practically changed, beyond optics.

4. I am so offended!

Horrified you would besmirch my name.

What is wrong with you?

[KT2000]

2. he does not have the power

to pass his crazy laws. The House will stop him. Lots changed tonight.

[spotthebird]

7. Seriously, the House

can do nothing but rally his* base.

The Senate will keep marching his crazy judges into the next 30+ years.


*Yes, the pig's

3. Go away

5. Debbie Downer ALERT!!

I don't want to hear about feline AIDS!

[Laura PourMeADrink]

16. Sickening that you ridicule

[still_one]

6. bullshit. Controlling the HOUSE is a big deal. It ensures that the Mueller investigation WILL be

completed. It insures oversight by the HOUSE, and preventing repeal of the ACA, destruction of Social Security and Medicare, and other draconian legislation that McConnel promised.

Do you understand how legislation is passed? IT TAKES BOTH HOUSES

You absolutely do NOT know what you are talking about

[dalton99a]

11. +1. He can still sign his bullshit executive orders

and get his MAGA judges approved by the GOP-controlled Senate. That's about it

[still_one]

14. He isn't going to be able to repeal the ACA by executive order, or destroy Social Security, Medicare

without the full Congress, and he won't be able to stop the investigation that is going on

[MrGrieves]

8. Oh look

[marylandblue]

9. Harbinger of the coming realignment in 2020

When Rs will be on defense in the Senate and a bold charismatic Presidential candidate can lead us back to the White House.

10. I guess saving democracy just doesn't make you happy

[spotthebird]

18. If it happens it would

definitely would make me happy.

Let me know if we brush against the possibility

[tinrobot]

13. The House has the power to ask the IRS directly for tax returns.

He can't really interfere with that.

And if he does, I'm sure Mueller would be happy to hand them over.

[spotthebird]

19. Mueller is a civilian sometime within the next week or so.

it's over

[Laura PourMeADrink]

15. Agree, sadly. Without mandate elsewhere...our house

will just be a stopper. Time to regroup.

[budkin]

17. He won't win reeelection though

So there's that.

[Thekaspervote]

20. Hey.. did you run for office?? Why such a negative post? The Dems did very well tonight

[mtnsnake]

21. So how exactly did he win?
