I voted for finishes term, although I can see this swinging two ways. Basically, the right theory is that if Congress goes to the left after November, it's gonna open the door for Mueller's investigation to actually matter in terms of impeachment. So that's going to mobilize the right base to vote. Meanwhile the majority of people (lets say 60+ percent) are going to be lazy and not vote because they don't think their vote matters. Which means the right is going to win another close fought victory because most people don't actually care enough to vote, especially in a non-Prez election. Combine that with gerrymandering/voting laws that make it hard to vote in left leaning strongholds like inner cities, and it will be close. So if/when the right maintains control in Congress, Mueller knows impeachment is basically off the table because party over country (unless of course he has legit evidence that Trump is basically in debt to the Russians which means they own him).

TL;DR: The right maintains control, Trump finishes his term.

In the unlikely event the left gains control or at least gets the split, Mueller finishes his investigation and no doubt recommends Trump for impeachment, which has a legit chance of passing.
