If the Republicans (somehow) pick up all the Trump states in the Senate elections later this year, they would have a super majority not seen since the 70's for the Democrats. A president with a 35% approval rating would never get a margin of victory like that. Some states like Missouri, Indiana, and Florida are definitely possible, but not states like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, etc. Those went to Trump yeah, but by under 2 points. And remember, there's Nevada, which Clinton won by 2, Arizona, which Trump won by 3, and Texas, which even a terrible Democrat like Hillary swung over to the Dems. My own prediction might honestly be off. Looking back now, Dems pick up 1, Reps pick up 1, or no change. I don't really know about Tennessee, but a Dem who won 68% in a gubernatorial election just in 2006, should be interesting to see. But yeah. The Republicans won't get a super majority. If Trump was popular, then maybe like +3-5 for the Republicans. But reality, he has a 35%. Soo yeah. Love to hear replies. Cheesy
What in God's name are you going on about Huh
I wanted to ask the same question, but I wasn't quite sure if my English was simply not good enough.

He obviously read the thread title and nothing else and assumed this was a thread claiming that all 2018 senate election would mimick the presidential winner in 2016.
