TYT's Election Night: Big Democratic Wins Across the Map
Democrats had a blowout night in the midterms, and it's good news for anti-war, populist candidates and bad news for Trump and the GOP establishment.
- Democrats won big, including in states Republicans usually hold like South Carolina, Kansas, Iowa, and Texas.
- A progressive candidate in Michigan won his Senate race despite huge spending against him from pro-Israel groups and attacks from both parties.
- Trump's endorsements backfired badly, and losing the House and Senate leaves him with much less power over his own party.
- The win is being read as a mandate to end Middle East wars, lower prices, and cut military funding to Israel.
Outlook: Expect pressure on newly elected Democrats to follow through on ending the war and lowering costs, or face being voted out in two years.
