House Speaker Paul Ryan says Donald Trump's victory has turned politics on its head.
The former House Speaker said on Wednesday he expects the new president to work hand-in-hand with the Republican-led Congress and Trump has earned a mandate to enact his agenda.
He thanked Trump for his "coattails" during the election that bolstered the Republican majority in the House.
Ryan has said he wants to be speaker in the new Congress and has expressed confidence in doing so.
But he could face resistance from the Freedom Caucus, which chased former Speaker John Boehner from Congress last year.
