CNN analyst Stephen Collinson expects that the Republicans will turn the Senate upside down, which will shift the balance of power in Washington, as he believes that the Republicans’ victory in the Senate is the first major success for the Republicans in the election battle.

Collinson added, “The new Republican Senate will be in a position to support Trump’s agenda if he wins a second term, and to resume the process of reshaping the judiciary that the former president began by including larger numbers of conservatives if he ends up in the Oval Office. But if Harris succeeds, she will face… “Problems confirming her cabinet members and judicial nominees, and a Republican Senate, could thwart her domestic plans.”

Collinson believes that there was not much to cheer about for Democrats on the Senate map on Tuesday.

On the House of Representatives.

“If they succeed, Republicans will be in a position to dictate the agenda in Washington, and help Trump fulfill his promise to cut taxes and restrict immigration,” Sullivan added. Tuesday’s results ensured that Senate Republicans would be able to help Trump appoint conservative judges and others. Of government employees.
