Until the train wreck that has been the Trump tenure of just 70 days, democrats faced a daunting challenge for the 2018 senate status. Senate Democrats currently face 23 seats to defend, to Republicans 8.
However, the tables have turned thanks to the Trumpster's incompetence in governing. Where republicans once predicted easy wins in such states as ND, WI, OH, WV, etc., the assurances are quickly fading based on the "populist" promises that were easy to make but a bitch to fulfill.
Bear in mind that a swing of only 3 senate seats from the current status will make a huge difference after the midterms, and were that swing to happen, the Trump administration would find itself as a lame duck one with 2 additional years to go.
Interesting times.
