While it’s true that not taking the House would be a blow to Trump’s ability to govern (and this extended counting is extremely fishy), a large part of the good he could do in this term is massively reducing the size and reach of the administrative state. This is largely within the power of the executive branch as it’s all done through the Cabinet agencies, so hopefully at least he, Elon, Ron Paul, RFK etc can get that done at least to some extent whichever way the House goes.

Predictions that I have seen are 221-214 for Team Red. FauxNews has it at 204-187 right now. I can say that many of the races are probably close, within the number of outstanding mail-in ballots. My wife's mail-in ballot did not arrive until Friday. For instance, MD-06 is separated by 300ish votes and a recount has been triggered as well.

As Ivan Throne mentioned earlier today, we have been given a reprieve to further prepare and train; use the time wisely. I'll be planning my escape from Maryland in earnest with a thanks to the Creator for the blessing of time. Maybe Trump keeps his promises. Dismantling a good chunk of the administrative state will go a long way.
