Trump Makes History By Adding Seats to GOP Senate Majority in His First Midterm Election

[JustKidding]

Thanks to President Trump Republicans picked up 4 new Senate seats on Tuesday with wins in Florida, Missouri, Indiana and North Dakata.
Arizona, Montana and Nevada were still being decided.
By the end of the night President Trump will gain at least one senate seat and as many as five new GOP senators.

This is historic.
And President Trump was eager to tell the nation of his success tonight.

The President quoted Ben Stein tonight: “There’s only been 5 times in the last 105 years that an incumbent President has won seats in the Senate in the off year election. Mr. Trump has magic about him. This guy has magic coming out of his ears. He is an astonishing vote getter & campaigner. The Republicans are unbelievably lucky to have him and I’m just awed at how well they’ve done. It’s all the Trump magic – Trump is the magic man. Incredible, he’s got the entire media against him, attacking him every day, and he pulls out these enormous wins.”
Ben Stein, “The Capitalist Code”

It's a pity that the Democrats won control of the House Of Representatives, but brilliant news about the Senate.

I must admit, I sometimes transpose my understanding of the British political system onto the American system. Which I know, isn't analogous. How bad is it for President Trump to lose the house, and can he bypass it via the Senate?

Not good... It will be mostly gridlock for two years. However, the senate is the body that confirms the federal judges President Trump appoints. So, there's that.

Can they repeal President Trump's tax reforms?
