forward. manu raju, thank you for the report. back with our political panel sorting through this fallout we re seeing here. juana summers, a.b. stoddard and dave icmawina. i remember an aide that said to me, looking at the majority in the house, because of the way state legislatures are controlled by republicans and able to create districts in a certain way that in the absence of that, at times in recent years, the republicans actually should be in the minority, but they re in the majority and so they find themselves in this sort of odd situation, and it kind of gums up the works. but that s not going to change. so what is the way forward here for republicans? i think david made a great point before the break. we re heading into, no matter who wins at the top of the ticket in november what s going to be a pretty depressing, frankly, era of congress with not a lot of room for compromise
