THUGGER admits it's not about RUSSIA !!! and is, in fact, a witch hunt. "Trump better be innocent of any wrong doing, anywhere, anytime."

I imagine a lot of stupid people will misrepresent my post above as a 'defense' of Trump, or, even more, a prediction he'll either retain or even gain seats. It's not.
When it comes to the topic specifically, the overwhelming statistics are that sitting presidents lose Congressional seats ...
... but especially during mid-term elections.

As Michigan voters head to polls, women are showing up
Aug. 7 (UPI) -- As Michigan voters head to the polls Tuesday to select who will represent them in November's general election, they'll have more than twice as many women to choose from on the congressional level than in any other primary in the past two decades.
With a roughly 57 percent increase in women filing to run in congressional races nationwide -- from 338 in 2016 to 530 this year -- Michigan is ahead of curve in what some are calling the latest "year of the woman."

Scarborough: Ohio election shows GOP becoming a ‘rural party’
GOP candidate Troy Balderson holds a narrow lead in the special election race for a House seat, but the result is close enough that it could trigger a recount under state law. Even if Balderson wins, the results are discouraging for Republicans given the district's GOP tilt. It had been held by the GOP since 1983, and Trump won the district by 11 points.

The "latest" year of the woman, huh?
How many years in a row does that happen before we just start calling it "just another year"?
