What are you talking about? He's winning Michigan and Wisconsin. He's winning more than a what Romney won.

You can't emphasize enough how important it was for the GOP to hold the House and Senate. Even with a Trump win, the GOP had to be in control.
Very happy there won't be a Senate Majority Leader Schumer.

He said *worst* case scenario. In other words, he's agreeing with you.

I understand that. I'm saying his worst case scenario is just to win the Romney states (ie lose MI, PA and NH) he would be tied at 269 and it would go to the House.
Worst case scenario still gives him the election.

Now let's hope the GOP will actually oppose the policies that are detrimental to this country. That's been our biggest problem for decades, a Congress that won't do their jobs.
