Given how well the economy has been doing, Trump, if he were a “normal” president, would have expanded the Republican House majority, not lost it, says CEPR’s Mark Weisbrot

Dems should STFU about Trump for two seconds once in a while and try to figure out how they got beat. They haven't learned a thing. Winning back the House was a disaster IMHO – now Nancy Pelosi can say "people don't want a change."
To comment on the 'economy' without noting who is benefitting from it and noting the 'jobs' are typically low paying jobs, is playing to a questionable narrative.
This was not a Blue wave
The Dems gained less than 30 seats in the house which is still a net loss over the last decade. More seats lost in the Senate and a party without a platform or message. Trump is supporting Pelosis bid for leadership, he couldn't be sitting prettier 😀
We have been under a capitalists coup going on for 50 years. It's in its final completion.
Bernie Sanders was correct about the Oligarchy government
Trump is the symptom of the capitalists coup.
Wake up people. This isn't about the parties any longer….this is about the people rising and learning about the truth….we need to come together as grassroots. ..
We the people by the people for the people
this video is very mainstream in its perspective. ugh, Nancy Pelosi is soooooooooooooooooooo out of touch, what a terrible leader.
Trump won, the Democrats won, the people lost.
Whenever I see the clones behind trump at his rallies all I see are hungry seals waiting for trump to throw more fish, the trolls here are hilarious.
This guy had me going there until he said the economy was good. Trump said in the 2016 election campaign that the employment numbers are fake, and they're not any less fake now.
Are you kidding me, the economy is good? 40% of adults cannot come up with $400 for an emergency. And what raises, the average of 2% does not even cover inflation The stock market is no indication on how well the average person survives. The newly created jobs are mostly low paying, without benefits jobs. Perhaps Mr. Trump is not as stupid as most of us think and has more of an idea of the real pulse of America. After all, look at who attends his rallies. So, please tell me again on how well this 2018 gig economy works for the average person.
Psyche.. not true…he lost far less in the senate than any past president, but you didn't even admit that. Obama lost over 1,000 seats in his eight years as potus with losing 63 seats in his 1st midterm loss.
ha ha ha….you're so friggin' transparent…so you're sponsored by the blue idiots with NO platform. you gotta offer up something other than slamming trump. but then again, you're the real propaganda network. spin doctors pushing some agenda, like you do with the horsecrap called climate change
Baloney: he lost the equal fewest house seats since Reagan in the post war era and gained seats in the senate which is unprecedented.
Let's not forget about the little Occupy Wallstreet incident in between Obama's terms:
EVERY TIME A DEMOCRATIC PARTY PRESIDENT IS ELECTED THE LEFT IS PUT TO SLEEP PIKE A DAMN RABID, DIRTY DOG IN IT'S SLEEP. 😡😡
Not only running a White House based on hate but economic policy that worsens the gap between rich and poor, allowing white collar crime to continue and climate change to destroy so much resources.
Trump's 2018 was anything but "significant" Trump did great! this is just dumb.
trump tears. gotta luv it!
This is the first video I’ve ever had to thumbs down on this channel. This guest is just biased.
Why did the Democrats select 46 former Intelligence, national security and military veterans to be candidates in the midterms? Of the 46 in the original selection, 30 got through. Presumably Dems are fearful of investigations into Hillary's private server, and revelations from the emails Assange made public etc. There is no depth to which the Dems are willing to sink.
I'd like to know how many SOCIALISTS have been elected. I don't care about Lib-Dems vs Lib-Cons.
No it wasn’t, lol, the dems will still pass his 700 billion dollar ndaa military budget, still support his wars, and they will also take the blame for when the economy goes to shit since they took the house. Are you guys new here??
More fake news pls dont call this channel "the realnews" that's just a big joke.
What bloody world do you live in? UNreal. Only idiots believe their own lies.
More lies from Jewish-controlled Real News. Obama lost double the amount of seats in 2010. Clinton did just as bad in 1994. Trump gained seats in the senate, that's real power. Nobody cares about the House. Plus Ginsburg' about to kick the bucket, Trump will get another constitutionalist in. Cry me a river, Marxists.
And Democrats will do nothing about the rampant voter suppression because they use the same voter suppression tactics against progressives during the primaries.
Democrats need to think of the people and their concerns.
Time for Pelosi to go!
