The mid-term elections
Trump: It may be difficult to win the midterm elections

President Donald Trump is uncertain whether his economic policies will give Republicans success in next year's midterm elections. He tells the WSJ.

Trump emphasized in the interview that the country has secured investments in the multi-billion class that will transform the economy, but that they have not yet had their full effect.

- All the money that flows into the country builds factories — car factories, AI, lots of stuff. I can't say how it affects the voters, I can only do my job, he says.

Furthermore, Trump complained that the stock market no longer reacts well to good economic news. And if the news is "really good, it crashes".

When asked if the Republicans will take home the midterm elections, the president says that the party "should win", but that it is "statistically difficult".
