No matter who wins in the drawn-out epilogue to Tuesday’s presidential election, one big loser is already clear:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, along with her slavish mainstream media fanbase that confidently predicted Pelosi’s Democrats were going to grow their majority in the lower chamber.
Far from watching her party conference expand in the 2020 election, as results came in Tuesday and into Wednesday morning, it was clear Pelosi was lucky to keep her speakership at all.

“Democrats favored to keep control – BARELY. This is a giant stumble for Speaker Pelosi & the DCCC,” Jamie Dupree, Cox Media Group’s Capitol reporter, tweeted Wednesday morning.
The “DCCC” Dupree referred to is the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, the organization charged with getting more leftists elected to the House.
