"Surprise Trump House Victory – Establishment Republicans Lost the House
Looking at the 2018 election results in detail, you will find some surprises including an important and subtle surprise Trump House victory. 
Contrary to some analyst opinions, Trump did not lose the House. 
In fact, Trump was not the cause of the loss of the House from Republican control to Democratic control.

Similarly, there’s no reason for the Democrats to celebrate for too long because it is highly likely they will lose control of the House in 2020.
If the Democrats didn’t really win the House and the House wasn’t lost by Trump, what did happen and why?
The Establishment Republicans, also known as the moderate Republicans or the RINOs (Republicans in name only) lost the House. 
The numbers seem to back up that dramatic claim.
The President’s supporters in the House, the pro-Trumpers, those who supported President Trump’s major policy initiatives enthusiastically, did great. 
That was a surprise Trump House victory.

How Did the 42 Republican Seats in which the Incumbent Retired or Resigned Do in the Election?

All together 28 House Republicans chose to retire at the end of the current Congress. Another 14 House Republicans chose to resign.
The 42 House Republicans who either retired or resigned can be divided up according to their apparent reasons for their respective decisions:
I think the House has had the old Establishment Republican members almost completely removed from office by the American voters...
With this surprise Trump House victory, the conservative long-range trends continue. In the long-range, Establishment Republicans in the House and Senate are losing and Conservative Republicans in the House and Senate are winning and replacing them.

What’s the Outlook for the House in 2020?

It will return into Republican hands, and it will be much more conservative. 
Expect that it will support President Trump more closely in his second term of office."
