The GOP will get at least 40 seats in the upcoming November midterm elections due to President Joe Biden’s unpopularity, Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas) said in an interview with Fox News.
The top Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee is “very confident” about the party’s prospects in the election, McCaul said on April 24. Historically, the party in the minority tends to pick up some seats after the president’s first term in the White House.
“I predict we’re going to get probably at least 40 seats because this president has been so unpopular when it comes to inflation, gas prices … the foreign policy mistakes that he’s made, and quite frankly, they see him as a weak president.”
