Yup ... and a Senate that will appoint literally 100's of life-time conservative judges who will have far more impact on the next 30 years in the US than The House can even dream about ....
Trump's not right to call it a 'win' but in keeping the Senate he's probably won where it matters .... when the post election 'noise' calms down it will be interesting to see what the real impact is ....
Just to correct you slightly, it disproportionately favours certain geographic voters, as they can vote for who they want that's not Trumps fault, it comes under Article One of the constitution, amended by the Seventeenth Amendment in 1912 ... doubt they had Trump in mind when they wrote it ....
