- In the United States, they told about Trump's intention to strengthen the Republicans' position in Congress
US President Donald Trump intends to ensure the control of the Republican Party in the United States Congress in 2026. This was reported on August 4 by the NBS News channel.
"The president's party traditionally loses seats in the middle of the year, although new Republican efforts to redistribute electoral districts may strengthen the position of Trump's Republican Party. Trump and the Republicans are trying to protect their slim majority in Congress," the publication says.
According to the newspaper, the parties are now preparing for the upcoming elections, which will be held in 2026. It clarifies that the Republican Party controls both houses of Congress, but representatives of the Democratic Party need three seats in order to gain control of the House of Representatives, and four over the Senate.
According to polls conducted during this year, the ratings of the Democratic Party are "record low," while the Republican Party is in a better position.
It is noted that the majority in the House of Representatives and the Senate is formed in the states in which Trump won the elections last year. According to Joanna Rodriguez, a spokeswoman for the National Republican Senatorial Committee, representatives of the Democratic House are facing "historically low approval ratings" of 19% due to their "radical policies" that are not gaining popularity among voters.
She also added that, unlike the Democratic Party, representatives of the Republican Party are working to "reduce the cost of living, eliminate fraud and waste on the part of the government and prevent men from participating in women's sports."
The Wall Street Journal (WLS) reported on July 26 that, according to a survey conducted by the newspaper, the rating of the US Democratic Party has fallen to a 35-year low. According to the survey, 63% of voters have a negative attitude towards the Democratic Party. Only 33% of respondents now approve of the Democratic Party.
