Trump: Candidates that did not embrace me can 'say goodbye'

Source: The Hill



BY BRETT SAMUELS - 11/07/18 07:28 AM EST

President Trump suggested early Wednesday that Republican candidates who did not embrace him in the midterm elections lost as a result, calling the final outcome a "very Big Win" despite the GOP losing control of the House and several governorships.

"Those that worked with me in this incredible Midterm Election, embracing certain policies and principles, did very well. Those that did not, say goodbye!" Trump tweeted.

"Yesterday was such a very Big Win, and all under the pressure of a Nasty and Hostile Media!" he added.




The president provided a boost in the closing days of the campaign for Republican candidates that emerged victorious in a handful of key Senate races, including Josh Hawley of Missouri, Mike Braun of Indiana and incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas). Republicans Rick Scott and Ron DeSantis eked out wins in the Senate and gubernatorial races in Florida, respectively, after Trump visited the state multiple times.

At long last, there will be a check on his lunacy. I'm ecstatic!

it's those "who" worked with me. You have a tendency to refer to people as things, wonder why?
