But this was not a positive view of the Democrats. This was a rejection of Republicans in Washington," he added. "And Democrats just happened to be the beneficiary.

Here's the thing. Democrats are unpopular. They were able to win based off the sentiment that exists in the country right now. They did not earn a mandate to indulge all their left-wing fantasies. And they're going to be in there…

If Mississippi goes down, that will give Dems 56 Senate seats.

Texas has been the most significant Republican state this century. A Democrat sweep of statewide races — and possible capture of the legislature — takes away one of the anchors of the modern GOP. A huge loss.

The existence of Amendment 3 on the ballot is one of the reasons Florida averted the fate of other red states. It drew more voters to the polls.

We've built up a record of achievement. We've earned trust from a number of our voters that, even in the worst situation that you can imagine politically, we were able to hold the line.

This is close to an extinction-level event for Republicans… out of the 10 largest states in this union, only one state will have Republican control of their state, the state of Florida.

Chance of confirming a worthy successor to Justice Thomas and/or Alito during President Trump’s term: Zero. Chance of confirming a worthy successor during a hypothetical GOP admin 2029-2033: probably zero (GOP won’t be able to recapture…

I have made enough progress to merit another term leading a city of 3.8 million people.
