Ingraham says Republicans may feel relief at losing majority — The Hill

Fox News host Laura Ingraham said that many Republicans in the United States allegedly secretly would like the party to lose its majority in Congress in the November elections. In her view, this could relieve the Republican Party of pressure to advance President Donald Trump’s legislative initiatives.

As The Hill reports, Ingraham expressed this view on Thursday during The Ingraham Angle. According to her, many Republicans on Capitol Hill would be happy not to bear the burden of passing laws and could feel relieved to find themselves in the minority.

Discussion of the economy

During a conversation with Fox Business Network host Larry Kudlow, Ingraham criticized the Republican Party’s communication ahead of the midterm elections. Both argued that Republicans are not actively enough discussing economic indicators which, in their view, reflect positively on the Trump administration.

Ingraham referred to U.S. Census Bureau data released this week on the growth of median household income. According to the data cited in the article, it rose by 2.6% in 2025 to $87,460, the highest figure since such records began in 1967.

November elections

Kudlow also drew attention to the earnings of skilled trades workers, including electricians, welders and pipeline installers, saying that they are approaching $200,000 a year. Ingraham called the current period the best for men without higher education, a voter group that makes up an important part of Trump’s support.

Republicans will defend a narrow majority in Congress in the November elections amid voter dissatisfaction with the economy and the cost of living. The Hill notes that recent polls show higher support for Democrats among voters on issues key to them, including healthcare, the economy and immigration.
