The US President Joe Biden faces numerous challenges in the final two years of his term, which coincides with the Senate, and more than 1400 important appointments of his to courts, the cabinet, legislatures, and ambassadorships are in jeopardy. This is happening as Democrats celebrate their retention of the Senate by winning 50 seats and narrowing the margin in the House.
The US media, which under former President donald trump largely predicted a "Red Wave" against inflation, is now changing its tune and characterising Biden's retention of the Senate and narrow losses in the house of Representatives as a Blue tsunami that was more about trump and his choice of "racist and extreme right wing" candidates than it was about the President's governance or economic policies.
The Washington Post said that Democrats were "celebrating their retention of the Senate as their unique victory and rejection of GOP's extreme wing extremism." Sen. catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.reelection )'s was cheered by Democrats on Sunday, but they were unsure if they could keep control of the house after winning just 204 seats compared to 212 for the Republicans. According to media sources, Catherine's victory gave Democrats the crucial 50th Senate seat and ended Republican hopes of retaking control of both chambers of Congress, as many had projected in the weeks running up to election Day.
In her acceptance speech after winning the crucial Nevada seat on Sunday, Cortez Masto said, "When far-right Republicans declared they knew better, I knew we would show them wrong. Sen. Raphael G. Warnock (D) and Rep. Herschel Walker will face off in a runoff for the Senate in georgia next month. If successful, it would be a stunning victory for Democrats in a midterm election year that is typically unfavourable to the party in power. In the november midterm elections, Biden lost just 11 seats in the house of Representatives compared to Trump's 40, Clinton's 50, and Obama's 63. However, both obama and Clinton were elected to a second term in the White House.
