There is a fascinating possibility in the Senate - if everything else stayed the same but Flake were to lose in AZ (possible though unlikely) and Heller were to lose in NV (also possible) and the 84 year old Orrin Hatch were to retire or lose, Evan McMullin could very well win the Utah Senate seat as an Independent, setting up a caucus of 48 Democrats and 3 Independents (Sanders, King, McMullin) for a common anti-Trump agenda.Right, I think the dream outcome for the left is:
1) Gum up the works over the next two years in every possible way. Force meaningless debates in the Senate. Distract Trump with stupid controversies and personal slights. Filibuster the Supreme Court nominee and any meaningful bills that come up. Feed and encourage the Republican party's internal war. It's a huge stretch but impeachment proceedings would be the icing on the cake -- it would cause delay, distraction, Republican conflict, distrust, etc.
2) Flip the House and/or Senate in 2018. This is a really tall order. I think the Senate is out of reach just because of the seats in play. The House is a huge longshot but maybe it can happen if progressives get energized and conservatives/Trump fans are demoralized from a steady stream of negative news.
3) Win back White House in 2020, and ideally a whole lot of additional offices in federal and state government. Start undoing whatever crap Trump managed to accomplish.
It'll be interesting to see what happens.
