On the evening of November 3, local time, the US media predicted that the Democratic Party would win a big victory in the midterm elections and regain control of both houses of the Senate and the House of Representatives. In response, US House Speaker Johnson said that in the past 90 years, there have only been two cases where the current president was able to add or keep seats for his party within the first two years of his term. He said bluntly, “It seems that the rules of history will continue tonight.” At the same time, Johnson said that if the Democrats turn the next two years into a farce about retaliation, legal battles, and partisan games, it will hurt all Americans, and House Republicans will form a “firewall” to ensure that this does not happen.
