According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, …

United States House Speaker Mike Johnson expressed a sense of disappointment following the Republican Party’s recent setbacks in the midterm elections, emphasizing that defending the party’s majority in the House requires a fundamental shift in a long-standing historical trend spanning over a century.

Explaining the electoral outcome, Johnson pointed out that over a span of 90 years, only two presidents had successfully prevented the loss of their party’s seats during midterm elections.

Prior to these remarks, President Donald Trump commented on the Republican electoral losses, stating that he was not personally running in the races and asserting that his candidacy would have secured a sweeping victory.

Furthermore, Trump noted that he is prepared to accept the election results, expressing a willingness to cooperate with the Democratic Party and potentially reach bilateral agreements moving forward.
