During an interview, President Donald Trump revealed his skepticism about the Republicans retaining control of the House of Representatives. He attributed this uncertainty to the delayed impact of his economic policies, as reported by the Wall Street Journal.

Trump emphasized that while his tariffs and tax reforms are designed to improve the economy by creating jobs and attracting investments, the tangible benefits might not be felt by voters until after next year's elections.

With Democrats gaining traction due to concerns over affordability and high living costs, Trump plans to campaign aggressively to highlight his economic achievements and assure voters of future prosperity.
