"We received a message from the future this week, directed to the outraged liberals of the so-called anti-Trump resistance. It was delivered by an unlikely intermediary, Greg Gianforte, the Republican who won a special election on Thursday and will soon take his seat in Congress as Montana’s lone representative. (Here’s a trivia question to distract you from the doom and gloom: Without recourse to Google, how many other states can you name that have only one House seat?)

If you found yourself ashen-faced and dismayed on Friday morning, because you really believed the Montana election would bring a sign of hope and mark the beginning of a return to sanity in American politics, then the message encoded in Gianforte’s victory is for you. It goes something like this:

Get over Montana already — and stop trolling yourself with that stupid special election in Georgia too. They don’t mean anything, and anyway — that dude Jon Ossoff? He’s about the lamest excuse for a national progressive hero in the entire history of Democratic Party milquetoast triangulation. Oh, and since we’re on the subject: Forget about the “blue wave” of 2018. Forget about the Democratic majority of 2019. Forget about the impeachment of President Donald Trump. Have you even been paying attention? Because none of that stuff is happening and it’s all a massive distraction"

Wake up, liberals: There will be no 2018 ?blue wave,? no Democratic majority and no impeachment - Salon.com

YIKES this guy is a pessimist. Doesn't he see what's going on? Enlightened Hollywood celebs bravely speaking out about Trump's hate filled policies.Colbert DESTROYING Trump. Chelsea Clinton eviscerating Trump. 8 th graders standing up to the immoral policies of Paul Ryan.
Super Patriot Brack Obama taking postshot about Trumps' wall.

Resistance fever-it's EVERYWHERE.

LAFRIOT!!!

All hope now rests on the inexperienced shoulders of 29-year-old Jon Ossoff.

I think you need to look past Montana. I think you should keep in mind Trump won that state by 21 points. Gianforte won by just six. I think one needs to take a good look at the House, to see which seats are at risk and how many of each party's seats that is. Perhaps even look at history to see what happens in the house when a presidents approval rating is hovering close to 40%. Here is what history states:

The following midterms happened when a president’s approval rating is at 45% or below:

1974 Ford 42% Minus 5 senate Minus 48 House seats

1982 Reagan 43% Plus 1 senate Minus 26 House seats

1994 Clinton 41% Minus 9 senate Minus 54 House seats

2006 Bush II 37% Minus 6 senate Minus 33 House seats

2010 Obama 45% Minus 6 senate Minus 63 House seats

2014 Obama 41% Minus 9 senate Minus 13 House seats

Trump won last November because his opponent was Hillary Clinton. She was disliked by approximately 60% of all America, the same percentage Trump was. She is gone from the scene today. The first midterm is usually a referendum on the president. As of today, it doesn't look good.

I would also keep an eye on Georgia. CD-6 where the Democrat is running against Trump and not his Republican opponent, Karen Handel. It was Prices district, a district Price won 61-39. the polls show Ossoff, the Democrat up by 7. If Trump is wearing thin in Georgia, that could spell big problems for next years midterm. But they are a year and a half away, things can change. The question is, will they?
