Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) says he "doesn't believe" that there will be a so-called "blue wave" of Democratic victories sweeping the midterm elections, and that it will be a "very, very close" situation.
Speaking with The Hill's Krystal Ball on Monday while stumping from Iowa Democrat J.D. Scholten, Sanders said that the outcome from the November 6 elections will be determined by a "handful of votes."
"You know a lot of people talk about this "blue wave" and all that stuff - I don't believe it. I happen to think that on election night we're gonna find a very, very close situation, and that maybe a handful of votes determining whether Democrats gain control of the House."
"We have an entity able to stand up to [President] Trump or we don’t," added the former Presidential candidate whose aspirations for the Oval Office were derailed after Hillary Clinton and the DNC "rigged the primary" against him in 2016.

Sanders - rumored as a 2020 hopeful against Donald Trump, told Hill.TV that he's doing everything he can to promote promising Democratic candidates such as Scholten - stating "we desperately need his voice" in Congress.
Democrats will need to pick up 23 seats during midterms in order to take back control of the House.

What do you want to stand up to President Trump about? Are you against new jobs? Are you against higher wages? Are you against bringing our factories back home? Are you against fixing our bad trade deals to stop foreign countries from stealing our manufacturing base, good jobs and money supply?

Are you against a secure border? Are you against stopping illegal immigration? Are you against reducing excess legal immigration that deflates salaries and wages of American Workers?

Are you against killing ISIS? Are you against peace with North Korea? Are you against NATO countries paying their fair share? Are you against a real nuclear agreement with Iran? Are you against a new and improved relationship with Russia?

Are you against new fair trade deals that benefit our country and workers? Are you against lower taxes for business and working Americans? Are you against reducing unemployment? Are you against reducing the number of people on food stamps because they got a job? Are you against growing our economy through production output instead of subsidized population growth?

Are you against the lowest unemployment and poverty rates for minorities since they've been keeping records?

What is it that you want to stand up to Trump about, Bernie?
