House Speaker Mike Johnson has admitted that losing the House in the 2026 midterm elections would effectively end President Donald Trump‘s agenda. This admission came right after Trump’s record-breaking State of the Union address, where he tried to rally support for Republicans ahead of the midterms.
According to HuffPost, Johnson said he feels “very bullish” about the GOP’s chances but was clear about what a Democratic takeover would mean. He stressed that Trump needs a full four years, “not just two,” to “fix the mess” he claims was inherited from the previous administration.
