The thing about Trump which I tend to believe he is unconsciously aware of, is his endless sucking of all the air in the room, even when there is no longer a room.

Years ago he was criticized with his backing of the 'Obama not born in the U.S.' meme. Now that it no longer was popular not believable, he flipped it and took credit for settling the issue that Obama WAS born in the U.S. The chutzpah of that gave me a smile. Now, he specifically has taken credit for the election results which gave his support victory, but explicitly not where it didn't. Who else can get away with that, like, EVER?

Meanwhile, the real world still exists, and in MOST of that, Trump has given victory away from Republicans and probably made the Senate go Democratic.

While it seems a solid prediction that the House of Reps. will go majority Republican, it may be such a slim minority in such contentious circumstances that the Republicans will find a new way to collapse.
