WNU editor: President Biden and the White House should be happy. Correction. They should be overjoyed!
All the expectations of a red wave fell flat.
Keeping control of the US Senate will mean his court and executive office appointees will still be approved.
There is an outside chance that the Democrats may still keep control of the House of Representatives. But even if they do lose the House, the Republican majority will be so small, maybe by a seat or two, that blocking the President's agenda will be challenge for the Republican leadership.
Within the Democrat party itself, the push to convince President Biden to not run in the 2024 Presidential race is going to fall silent.
President Biden, at least publicly, has stated that he will run in 2024. Unless there is a change in his physical health by then, he and Kamala Harris will be on the ticket for 2024.
And as to questions on President Biden's mental capacity to run in 2024. As John Fetterman's Senate victory in Pennsylvania has shown. Being mentally impaired after suffering a stroke and facing years of rehabilitation was not an obstacle for him to run for office and to win convincingly.
So what do I expect from the White House in the next two years?
I expect the White House, with help from the media, to say that this election cycle validated President Biden's policies, and he has mandate to continue on.
Policy wise the White House and the Democrats in Congress are going to double down on their domestic agenda and policies. Ditto on foreign policy.

To me mandate does not win when it is 51 to 49. or even 55 to 45.
to me mandate is more of a 60 to 40 or better.
If to get there you need media that gives you a re 15 point advantage and lawyers like Marc Elias to win less than 55% of the vote, you do not have a mandate. You have a velvet glove dictatorship or oligarchy that Stalin and Hitler could only dream about.
It is said that The Devil's greatest achievement was making man believe he doesn't exist.
So change it up and substitute God for The Devil in the above sentence. Assume God exists and God wants to create doubt as to his existence. Why would he do that?
Maybe Marc Elias is not as smooth as he thinks he is.
Tired of merc lawyers throwing out good ballots or insisting spoiled ballots be counted. But it pays good and you stay on the good side of people like HRC.
John Fund was on James Golden show the other day. I do not agree with everything he said, but he did say something very disturbing. In the past people counting ballots put lead underneath their fingertips. That is the way sausage is made.
I have spent a lot of time in a meat packing plant. I can set you mind at ease about the process at least in America. But politics and the vote counting process ... ah man that is was than untreated, radioactive sewage.
ah, more conspiracy nonsense
provide data, instances rather than references to sausage making
My concern is more with the future of the nation than with the current president. What do the mid-term elections tell us about that?
