Trump tweets triumphantly after Republicans are projected to retain the Senate but lose the House: 'Tremendous success'

President Donald Trump weighed in on the 2018 midterm elections via Twitter on Tuesday night: "Tremendous success tonight. Thank you to all!"

  • Tremendous success tonight," Trump tweeted. "Thank you to all!"
  • Despite Trump's enthusiasm, it was a mixed night for the GOP. Democrats regained control of the House, while the GOP maintained control of the Senate.

But Republicans made significant gains in the Senate, picking up key seats from incumbent Democrats in states where Trump won in 2016 and also turning back possible challenges in high-profile states like Texas. Holding the Senate gives Trump the opportunity to continue the historic pace of judicial nominations that have dominated the chamber's calendar in recent months.
