Pelosi predicted the victory of the Democrats in the US midterm elections in 2026

Former Speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi predicts that the Democrats will be able to regain control of the lower house of the US Congress in the 2026 midterm elections. This was reported on December 29 in The Guardian newspaper.

Pelosi said she has "no doubts" about whether Democratic Congressman Hakeem Jeffries will take over as speaker after the midterm elections, which will be held in the middle of US President Donald Trump's second term.

"Hakim Jeffries is ready. He is eloquent, respected by members of Congress, and a unifier," Pelosi explained.

According to The Guardian's forecasts, Republicans are preparing for a "defeat" in the 2026 midterm elections after Trump's approval rating dropped to 36%.

There are also many historical facts indicating that "the party occupying the White House usually suffers defeats in midterm elections.

"More than two dozen Republicans from the House of Representatives have stated that they do not intend to try to keep their seats, which makes some wonder if all these officials are leaving the sinking ship," the material says.
