Why It Matters
President Trump signaled that he would stick to a hard-line policy line after the Democratic Party took control of Congress in the recent midterm elections.
(Washington = Yonhap News) Correspondent Hong Jeong-gyu = U.S. President Donald Trump claimed on the 8th (local time) that the United States has regressed due to the Democratic Party's landslide victory in the midterm elections.
In an article posted on the social media platform TruthSocial on this day, President Trump said, "The United States has suffered a huge historical setback due to the results of the last election," and added, "Even the stock market, which soared like a rocket under Trump, lost $3 trillion in just one day."
This means that the U.S. stock market, which had been booming after his return to power, fell sharply the day after the midterm elections due to concerns about the Democratic Party's regulation of the artificial intelligence (AI) industry.
“But fear not, we will come back, bigger and stronger than ever,” Trump said.
This is interpreted as indicating the will to push forward with the existing policy line against the Democratic Party, which took control of Congress through the midterm elections.
Previously, on the 6th, President Trump announced that he would follow the 'My Way' route without giving in to the results of the midterm elections by appointing Stephen Miller, a hardliner who has believed in America First in tariff and immigration policies, as the new White House Chief of Staff.
