Trump adding seats to the senate is huge. That's going to help with the next SCOTUS nominee. And it means house dems can't get anything done either.

Plus NONE of the dem's high profile challengers won.

This is a big win for Republicans.
true that.. after all Republicans achieved so very much when they controlled both!
