Delusional. Trump just tweets about the "epic victory" of the midterms.




Donald J. Trump
?Verified account

People are not being told that the Republican Party is on track to pick up two seats in the U.S. Senate, and epic victory: 53 to 47. The Fake News Media only wants to speak of the House, where the Midterm results were better than other sitting Presidents.

The party in the White House tends to lose seats in the House and Senate during the mid-term elections.

The Senate is a little less consistent than the House is for this, being that only 1/3 of the Senate is up for re-election every 2 years and only 33 or 34 members, vs all 438 in the House.

Hannity must be writing his gibberish. There is coming a day when the so called Media is going to eat this POS and spit him out in the Toilet.

Mississippi, no candidate got a majority of votes, so it will go to a run-off election between Cindy "I'd be in the front row of a public lynching" Hyde-Smith vs. Mike Espy. I believe Hyde-Smith is favored to win, but if she keeps talking about lynchings and making it more difficult for liberals to vote ... anything can happen. That run-off election will not be until November 27th.

Florida is in the middle of a state-wide hand recount right, which is due to completed sometime on November 18th. Right now, I would expect that things don't look good for Bill Nelson and that Rick Scott will win the election ... but who knows?

You can't even find out, they've just put the kibosh on anybody finding out about the GOP's EPIC victory of net-gaining 2 seats in the Senate (nevermind that the Dems had over twice as many to defend at the outset).

I mean, I TRIED to find out which party held which seats, but this info, it's just ... nowhere. It's SPOOKY, the media's POWERS! So, obviously, it's all a big conspiracy by the Fake News ...

Ya know what else, Trumpenfuhrer? Relative to the state of the economy at election time, your 'midterm results' were absolutely F***ING TERRIBLE, worst in 100 YEARS. And regardless of the economy, your ass lost more house seats than any Republican POTUS in ANY election ... since Nixon/Watergate in the early 70's.

When will this PATHOLOGICALLY LYING F****** IDIOT just STFU, and GO AWAY?!?

Srsly.
