The first test will come Wednesday during internal House Republican leadership elections that will establish the new power centers for a Washington dominated by President-elect Donald Trump.

WASHINGTON—President-elect Donald Trump endorsed House Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.) to remain in his post, moving Wednesday to unify GOP lawmakers and avoid a replay of the leadership drama that dragged down the party over the past two years.

Republicans have won enough seats to control the House of Representatives, completing the party’s sweep into power and securing their hold on both chambers of Congress and the White House. Republicans gained control of the Senate last week.
