Midterms

So, in 2016 the opposition party took the Presidency after 8 years of Democratic rule and two years later, the Dems take the house, but Republicans hold onto the Senate.  In other words, following a pretty similar trend to most elections post-War with tiny variations here and there.

I keep waiting for either fascism or anarchy to rise up, but it seems like there's a lot of forces out there opposing them successfully. Hurrah for America.

SIDE NOTE: Is there any doubt the turnout was high for this midterm was due to Trump? Does this mean all the folks who have been complaining about low voter turnout for decades are satisfied?
