Would cool-headed supporters of Hillary Clinton please attempt to persuade me why...

86. I think it is "possible" we get the Senate this year.

Do I think it is a reality, no, but I can hope. This year is a tough one to gauge. They won't be able to obstruct for 4 more years, especially if we see 2 more judges go either by retirement or death. Their own supporters are after them over not voting on Garland.

I cannot be any stronger, we cannot have Trump replace 3 members of the court. Lord knows what they would repeal, beginning with the ACA, while it isn't perfect it is better than nothing for people with no insurance or a preexisting condition. They would give the rich and corporations even more power. I know they portray Hillary as being pro-corporation, but she couldn't get away with it and get reelected in this climate. I honestly don't think she will try after this election.

I think the mid-terms in 2018 may give us more seats in the House, maybe even give us back control, but the truth is, until they deal with gerrymandering I don't see it. Even then, Americans have always liked a balance of powers, putting the party in the White House out of the House. Sometimes I think it would be better to have the House and Senate and let them have the Presidency but that is another issue all together.
