Just some context for the last time he used this wording.

They had majority in House and Senate, why haven't they repealed it already?

That’s a fricking lie

They had every opportunity to do it and they failed.

I hope the GOP wins the house back and keeps majority in the senate. But they absolutely failed at immigration and healthcare holding all major government branches.

That's because plenty of Republicans want to keep the status quo so they have things to scare voters with

The house did vote to repeal it it was the Senate that failed.

The reason is about to be replaced by another fighter pilot named McSally. Or at least god willing.

Fair enough point.

For the record, I'm all in for a Red Wave but there just isn't enough statistical evidence (whether polling or historic outcomes) to suggest such.

Nobody adequately answered me in the other thread why I should believe him and so I'm concluding it's rhetoric.

FIFY It's easier to criticize than to create. We better hurry, though. As evidenced by all of our other floundering social programs, once you give someone something it's damned near impossible to take it away.

They will as soon as there is another Dem President to give them political cover by vetoing any repeal. It's easier to keep telling people what they want to hear instead of trying to teach them why a full repeal is a stupid idea.

Interesting.
But the question may fall to definition.

What performance outside of the norm constitutes a "wave"?

The norm is a midterm loss of 4 Senate Seats and 30 House Seats for the POTUS' party.

What beyond that would be considered a "Blue Wave"?
What, short of those normal losses, would be considered a "Red Wave"?

One thing that will happen on Tuesday is a purge in the RINOs.

States like NJ, NY, VA and CA where the wave will hit is going to knock those the RINOs back and the seats picked up are almost all Freedom Caucus pledges.

The House Freedom Caucus and McCain knifed Trump and Ryan. It is what it is.
