He said that, even though he's trying to run away from it now. And voters did.
A year or so ago, the pundits were saying that it was highly unlikely that the Democrats could flip the Senate and even if they did so, it would be by one or two seats.
Four seats and it's possible that two more may be added. Between that and the House, where the Democrats will have 225 seats and there are almost sixty seats left to be decided. Trump's rubber-stamp Congress will be over. It may be gone, now, as those Republicans who were fired by their constituents will have no reason to keep bowing to him.
The Democrats also flipped the governorships in some red states, including Texas and Georgia. In both states, Democrats took the office of attorney general.
A few thoughts.
Besides the economy, the Republicans' heavy reliance on hate-based politicking backfired. Trump's gerrymandering not only backfired, it may have driven voters to the polls in those districts. Fetterman was probably counting on having a lot of influence if the Democrats got to 51 seats. Now, he'll be little more than an annoyance.
And anyone who is now babbling about how the Democrats stole the election should be pitied, for they clearly need some professional help.
