You say it as if its a bad thing, hallie jack sson. Msnbc headquarters here in new york. A day after the midterms, still a number of races to decide, enough results for both parties to take a victory lap. President trump will take his this hour, the president scheduled to appear in the eastern room of the white house for a News Conference roughly 30 minutes from now. Today hes already touted himself as the magic man for last nights senate wins. Never mind losing the house, though.
