With the Democratic win of the majority in the House tonight.......donald trump is ROYALLY fucked!

Adam Schiff will be chairman of the House Intelligence Committee
Maxine Waters will be chairwoman of the House Financial Services Committee
Jerrold Nadler will be chairman of the House Judiciary Committee

etc, etc, etc!!

Goodlatte is out, Jeb Hensarling is out, but most importantly Devin Nunes is OUT, and perhaps on his way to an indictment and prison!

How is it we're already celebrating?

Guys, I took too much for granted in 2016.

Can someone convince me that the House is out of the reach of the Repubs?

...many of those to be called really are decided.

Democrats only need 25 of those 65. Even Putin can't pull off 41 of 65 seats at this point.
