President Donald Trump told voters to pretend he was on the ballot in this year’s midterm elections.
They did. And they resoundingly rejected both his policies and his Republican Party.
Democrats have captured full control of Congress, NBC News projects, with voters delivering a forceful repudiation of Trump’s agenda, coupled with a clear-cut message that Congress has not done enough to provide checks on his administration and needs to do more to address affordability and corruption.
Looking at the overwhelming results, to me it very much looks like a complete repudiation of Trump and Republicans. I don’t see any particular policies or platforms from the Democrats voters explicitly embraced. The election was a rejection of trump and republicans, not an endorsement of Democrat platforms. What people want is affordability and a sane immigration policy.
Yeah good point, it’s not like any Democrats were campaigning on affordability lol.
