Trump says elections were ‘giant step back in history’ for US
Democrats captured both chambers of Congress in last Tuesday's midterms that dealt historic losses for the Republican Party in states they had dominated for decades.
US President Donald Trump declared on Sunday that he intends to return with a resurgence far greater than previously envisioned following Democrats' victory in securing both houses of Congress. In a post on Truth Social, Trump described the midterm elections as a "giant step back in history" for the United States, emphasizing that the party he led suffered significant losses in states it had traditionally dominated for generations.
The president asserted that the stock market, which had flourished during his tenure, experienced a decline in value post-election.
Despite the setback, Trump maintained an unwavering tone, proclaiming, "We will be back, BIGGER AND STRONGER THAN EVER BEFORE!" While Republican lawmakers grappled with the consequences of their electoral defeat, Trump displayed a resolute stance. On Friday, he appointed Stephen Miller, a staunch supporter known for his role in implementing Trump's immigration policies, as his new chief of staff.
This move signaled a forthcoming, forceful response from the Trump administration as it vows to hold the incoming administration accountable, vowing to "hold the Trump administration to account and fight every step of the way."
