Did ANYONE see this coming? I sure did not. Especially in my state of Texas. But with the overwhelming midterm win by Democrats, there can now be a very realistic prediction of the future.
The Democratic Senate will now show at a minimum of 55 seats, by most likely will be 56. The latest will be Mary Peltola in Alaska.
The Democratic House will now consist of 260 seats. Imagine that. The new Congress with the newly elected will be at least 260 seats in the House and 55 seats, maybe 56 seats in the U.S. Senate.
If I would have decided to write this before the mid-terms, I myself would have thought I was crazy, and the fact is, I could never write such a column as this before the mid-terms.
Who in their right minds thought that TEXAS would go BLUE? Noone on planet earth, especially me. Noone expected an elected Democratic governor in Texas in this day and age, but it will have one. But it happened, and it happened Biggly. Everything in Texas is BIG and this election is proof if that.
The wins are not just wins. The adjective to go with that is OVERWHELMING. What also can be predicted is that this will be enduring beyond 2027 and the next presidential election in 2028, maybe into 2030.
President Trump has to be furious, because he knows if there are 56 Democratic seats in the Senate, there is literally no way the Democrats do not hold the Senate going into the next president’s term. When you look at 56 senators, you need to look at the remaining Republicans.
Which one of the remaining Republicans are up for re-election in 2028? Now these senators up for re-election must be asking themselves a question! Are they really going to stand in the way of change, the driving force that allowed Democrats to OVERWHELMINGLY WIN in 2026?
Democrats will be bringing popular things to the Senate floor. They are not going on vacation whenever an important vote comes to the floor, not like the Republicans did with Mike Johnson leading in the House, to prevent bills from reaching the Senate for a vote.
You know it’s coming. Trump will be impeached once again. There will be oversight hearings and accountability will FINALLY arrive. And when it does, Donald Trump is planning massive pardons for everyone that supported him with his plans. Remember what is said here. He will set an all-time record in presidential pardons, and as a convicted felon president himself, he should not have the right. Expect that pardons that he gives will be challanged in court, which means since someone receives a pardon, they loose the right to not testify and tell the truth when the Oversight Committee comes knocking on their doors!
The next two years are going to be FULL of hearings. But nothing will be final until Donald J. Trump finally faces accountability like everyone else who breaks the law and goes against the U.S. Constitution. The job as president of the United States is to protect the Constitution, not try to change it or abuse it.
