"As you know, my primary focus has been the Senate."

That’s what Trump has been saying. You know what it really means? It means he’s distancing himself from the House. It means he thinks we will take the House. If he thought Republicans were going to hold it, he’d be jabbering on about “that big, beautiful, Republican House” or some other stupid bullshit like that.

I find that encouraging.

1. And with Ryan retiring, he has a ready whipping boy to blame the House loss on.

Lord knows he will never accept responsibility for failing at anything.

2. As long as he owns the Senate, he owns the Supreme Court and lower federal courts.

So, yeah, it's a more valuable presidential game token, if your goal is to control your future encounters with the law.

3. Very Good Point! He'd flee to Mar a Lago if we took the Senate from him too

Cornered with no where to hide & the walls closing in

Ha!

4. He was distancing himself from Kavanaugh, too.

[GaYellowDawg]

5. Ugh. That's a devastating point.

But didn’t he support him rabidly during the final days after Kavanaugh’s shitfit? These are the final days before the election and he’s distancing himself at the last.
