Midterms 2010, 2014 - History on Republican's Side

[Paul Motter]

From Wikipedia:

Midterms 2010

The 2010 midterm election were the third consecutive midterm election held in a president's first term where Republicans picked up seats across both houses of Congress.

It was also the second consecutive midterm election where party control in the House of Representatives changed hands.

Midterms 2014

The elections saw sweeping gains by the Republican Party in the Senate, House, and in numerous gubernatorial, state, and local races. The Republicans gained control of the Senate for the first time since 2006, and increased their majority in the House. The Republicans also gained two seats in governors' races. This election marked the fourth consecutive midterm election in which party control of at least one chamber of Congress changed hands.

That's the history of the party that isn't holding the WH picking up seats in the midterms, which is historically what most often happens.

But it will be true in 2022 even if Trump is reelected in 2020. The Ds are on track for massive seat losses as many as 10 in CA alone, depending on how many houses are destroyed in the mudslides.in 2019 (expected to be the worst mudslide season in CA history) and how many boarding houses can be bought in the San Juan or Permian basins in addition to family homes for one house of CA housing insurance money.
