Abstract

Today in Washington DC the US Congress will meet to certify the results of the 2024 election, and Donald Trump’s presidential win. Four years ago, the same count was disrupted by Trump’s supporters in a violent insurrection. Phelan US Centre Director, Professor Peter Trubowitz writes that, by contrast, there will be no election deniers or violence at the Capitol today. He also looks at Trump’s influence on Congress and its legislative agenda, from aiding the re-election of the House Speaker, Mike Johnson, to pushing a single budget bill.
