House Speaker Mike Johnson on Wednesday offered his congratulations to "president elect" Donald Trump, though the ex-reality TV star had not been widely declared winner of the White House race.
"There is hope and morning in America again! Donald Trump is now our President-elect, chosen by the American people for such a time as this," Johnson said.
Fox News so far is the only network to call the race for Trump.
