The Backstory

It's the year 2020, President Donald Trump is going in to run for his Re-Election to the Presidency. Throughout his years as President, starting in 2017, he made numerous amounts of Cabinet Appointments, and Supreme Court Appointments. The Midterms were absolutely devastating, and so were a lot of votes on the Cabinet Nominees.

Originally, in 2016, the Senate was in the GOP's Control, with them having 52 seats. They had a majority in the house, but only with 232 seats. Going into the Midterms, they knew that they were going to lose in the U.S. House, but by how many seats. They're only hope was to keep control of the U.S. Senate and keep it a Pro-Trump Senate. Senator Jeff Sessions resigned to become Attorney General, and Doug Jones won in the Special Election in 2017.

The Midterms:

In the U.S. Senate the GOP breathed a sigh of relief. They held onto the U.S. Senate with a 51-49 Majority. In the House though, there was mass panic. The Democrats picked up 50 seats, and completely shook up Washington. It was seen as a Democratic Wave nationwide. Notably, they also picked up multiple Gubernatorial Elections nationwide, their biggest in the state of Ohio where Richard Cordray won in an upset against Mike DeWine.

True, I can imagine Amy telling her campaign, and making demands to her staff, exactly like Selena.
