Donald Trump has been elected as the 47th President of the United States. He will take oath in the White House on January 20. But on Capitol Hill, there are doubts whether Trump will have full control of the House of Representatives.
Because, even though Trump has control of the White House and the Senate as the US President - the control of the House of Representatives, the lower house of the US Congress, is still out of his control. Because 218 seats are required to take control here.
It is estimated that Trump's Republican Party will win 211 seats. However, 218 seats are required for majority. In other words, Trump is getting seven seats less. On the other hand, Democrats are expected to win 199 seats. But this will be understood after the results of the remaining 25 seats.
Republicans, however, are seeking to retain control of the House. Because then their votes will be important enough to pass legislation in both legislative chambers. That will give Donald Trump more room to push his agenda.
On the other hand, even if they lose the election, the Democrats can take control of the House as a consolation. Which can be an obstacle to the passage of Trump's monopoly law. This is the last possible way to stop Trump.
In this regard, the election analysts of the US news partner of the BBC, CBS, say that this race is leaning towards the Republicans. But that doesn't mean Trump's team is going to complete a hat trick of wins. But that means it could go that way.
