I guess President Trump can call this a referendum on his agenda! Two special elections were Republican victories, one in the House race to replace Mick Mulvaney, who resigned to become the Budget Director, in the Trump Administration; and the other, in the Georgia 6th Congressional District (to replace Tom Price who resigned to become H.H.S. Secretary) which had record amounts of contributions for a House race (of over $50 million dollars; $20 plus million for the Republican candidate, and $30 plus million for the Democratic loser).
I wrote previously that merely pumping that much money into the Democratic candidate's campaign was tantamount to an admission of desperation, on the part of Democrat power brokers ( was George Soris' money behind this?), who probably meant to use a victory of their candidate as evidence of a referendum against Trump's Presidential election. Instead, it was indeed a referendum, not so much for Trump, as for his agenda, which Democrats have been refusing to support in Congress, and have apparently gotten support for that resistance from their so-called "moderate" Republican allies.
Perhaps this will serve to make the Democrats realize that the American people are serious about Trump's agenda, even if the Democrats won't support it. Either way, this might serve notice to the moderate Republicans to get on board, or face the prospect of losing re-elections in the future, Anything that will wake up these moderate idiots, who seem to be stalling the passage of Trump's agenda through Congress, must be considered a blessing, in my book; though throwing these rascals out of Congress should be a welcome goal, long term!
Anyone who doesn't believe that God works behind the scenes to bless His people, even in silly little elections, is a fool in my book. I see God's fingerprints all over these results!
