"Come January, Republicans will control all three branches of government,..."

I keep seeing this phrase in many articles. And it is wrong.

The articles are referring to the 3 branches under R control as POTUS, the US Senate, and the House of Representatives.

But the 3 branches of the Federal Government are the Legislative (Congress = House + Senate), Executive (POTUS), and Judiciary (SCOTUS). I don't think any of these articles imply that there are 5 Republicans in control of SCOTUS, so they are not correct in their discussion that Republicans control all 3 branches of government.

Republicans DO control the three branches of American government: Federal, the States, and the People.
