With the election of former President Donald Trump, the party now controls both the White House and Capitol Hill.
Over the past 50 years, the incumbent president's party has had a majority in both houses of the legislature only about one-third of the time.
The Republican Party's control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate made Donald Trump's victory in the presidential election on November 5 in the United States more resounding and the Democratic Party's defeat more comprehensive.
It shows that Donald Trump's return to power is not an isolated phenomenon but the result of a general trend in the political and social situation in the United States.
Along with the election of Donald Trump, the victory of the Republican Party confirms and affirms the dominance of the right wing and conservatism in the United States. In other words, American politics and society are clearly leaning towards the right wing and conservatism.
With the Republican Party controlling both the House and the Senate, Donald Trump can practically rule at will, at least for the next two years.
Basically, Mr. Trump can now easily take power and carry out his governing intentions, especially reversing the governing achievements of his Democratic predecessors, conveniently arranging personnel for the courts, especially the Supreme Court, thereby dominating the United States, especially domestically, even after he is no longer in power.
The biggest obstacle for Mr. Trump in this regard is that the Republican majority in both houses of the legislature is not large, and can easily become unstable in certain cases because not all congressmen in this faction are susceptible to being influenced by Mr. Trump.
