McCarthy guarantees GOP will take back House in 2022

After a spectacular campaign cycle for House Republicans, Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) is vowing that his party will take back the majority in 2022.
In an interview with the Washington Post, McCarthy guaranteed that Republicans, two years from now, will win the handful of seats needed to reclaim power in the lower chamber — a development that would put McCarthy in prime position to become Speaker.
Republicans will do that, he said, by building on the campaign playbook that made them unexpectedly successful in 2020: recruiting strong minority and female candidates across the country.
History has shown that the party that doesn't control the White House typically picks up seats during a midterm election.
