#5 Doing what needs to be done will take longer than 4 years. Cleaning out the House and Senate will take another 6 years. The work has begun. Having the House will allow us to see who needs to be replaced. If the GOP was in the minority in either house, progress is immediately limited to executive orders for two years, largely a waste.

#6 Trump's X-Men team will dramatically transform the swamp culture. Musk, JFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, and many more. News of Trump's win caused a massive cheering amongst the military and a general exclaimed now we can get something done.
