[Sources: Trump Privately Predicts Worst-Case Scenario for Midterm Elections – Democrats May Win Both Houses] BlockBeats reports that on November 4th, White House senior correspondent Kristen Holmes, citing White House sources, stated on the November 2nd evening episode of "Erin Burnett OutFront" that Trump had privately predicted a "worst-case scenario" for the midterm elections to some allies and advisors—that the Democrats would win both the House and Senate. Holmes stated that Trump had seen the polls, the candidates' situations, and the overall political environment, all of which were not optimistic for the Republicans. He not only made this assessment but also discussed the potential consequences of Democrats controlling both houses of Congress, including obstruction of governance between the executive and legislative branches, investigations into the executive branch, and potential impeachment hearings. That same day, Trump conveyed a similar sentiment in his final public address before the election at the Lincoln Memorial's reflecting pool. He stated, "For some reason, the incumbent president never wins the midterm elections. But we gave this one a very strong attempt." Holmes commented that this sounded almost like a concession made before the results were announced. Holmes also mentioned that although Trump had privately anticipated this, when she asked White House officials how the president would react if the Democrats won both houses of Congress, they replied, "Nobody knows, it depends on how he feels at the time." This report is based on anonymous sources, and the White House has not yet publicly responded. Voting in the election concluded on November 3rd, and preliminary results are still being tallied.
