House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was predicting a “blue wave” on Tuesday to add to the democrats’ majority, but that’s clearly not going to happen. In fact, the dem’s advantage will be down to a razor-thin margin and they could actually lose control. They must have put all their voter fraud eggs in the Biden basket, which was a huge tactical error.
You know things are bad for the democrats when even The Hill recognizes it:
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and her invigorated caucus charged into Tuesday with an energized base, a sharp fundraising advantage and hopes to flip anywhere from five to 15 Republican seats on election night. Instead, it was the Republicans who scored big — at least in the early counting — knocking out at least a half dozen vulnerable Democrats with several more clinging to the ropes.
The Hill couldn’t bring themselves to give the actual numbers, but luckily other members of the media were on it:
HOUSE UPDATE 8 AM
GOP is +4 (6 wins, 2 losses)
12 Democrats are currently trailing.
2 Republicans are currently trailing.Democrats favored to keep control – BARELY. This is a giant stumble for Speaker Pelosi & the DCCC.

AND, TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY, the chair of the DCCC, Rep. CHERI BUSTOS, is struggling to hang on in her Illinois district. Speaker NANCY PELOSI and her leadership team will have a lot to think about — and explain — in the next few weeks. Rs could have a net gain of 10 seats

Some non-President stuff:
-Based on called races and ones with clear leads, the GOP is poised to have 216 in the House. 217 is the majority.
-GOP performed well at state level, picking a governor seat in MT handily and conquering the RI House
-OH and IA are not swing states— Ben Whedon (@BenWhedon) November 4, 2020
There are 435 seats in the House of Representatives. If Republicans end up with 216 seats, that leaves the democrats with 217, the other 2 seats are Independents. A one seat advantage is still a majority, but it’s not much of one.
The democrats would be one death or one sex scandal or one corruption conviction away from losing control of the House. Let’s face it, they are old rapey grifters and the chances they can go 2 years with out dropping a seat or 2 are remote.
In the last Congress, elderly democrats were dropping like flies. They have Pelosi and Maxine Waters who are ancient plus a handful of members who are 83 years or older.
The “Loon Squad” alone could sink the democrats’ majority. America-hater Ilhan Omar is under investigation for campaign finance fraud and immigration fraud for things related to her incestuous marriage to her own brother. Foul-mouthed Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib is also under investigation for stealing money from her campaign. AOC is an idiot and can’t possibly manage to another 2 years without f*cking up.
Finally, democrats still haven’t gotten the memo that says rape is bad even for democrats so the odds are high that one of them will leave office in disgrace following a sexual assault scandal.
Whatever happens, the 2022 mid-term map for the democrats is disastrous so at the very least, Republicans will regain control of the House in 2 years and Pelosi will once again lose the gavel.
The other good news of the night is that Republicans will retain control of the Senate.
Now all we have to do is sit back and watch the democrats try to steal the White House with Joe Biden’s massive “Voter Fraud Network.” Thankfully President Trump has seated 3 conservative Justices on the Supreme Court because it looks like they will ultimately decide the winner.
