[US House Speaker Says Midterm Election Loss is Historical Pattern] On the evening of November 3rd local time, US media predicted a landslide victory for the Democrats in the midterm elections, regaining control of both the House and Senate. In response, US House Speaker, Republican Boris Johnson, stated that in the past 90 years, there have only been two instances where an incumbent president has been able to gain or retain seats for their party in the first two years of their term. He bluntly stated, "Tonight, the historical pattern seems poised to continue." Johnson also indicated that if the Democrats turn the next two years into a farce of retaliation, legal battles, and partisan politics, it will harm all Americans, and House Republicans will act as a "firewall" to ensure this does not happen.
