Deputy White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Tuesday touted the Republican win in the Georgia special House race, joking that Republicans are going to get sick of winning.

Sanders said during an interview on Fox News that she doesn't think the Democrats have a message.

"And I think Americans have seen that, and that's one of the reasons Republicans and this president continue to win time and time again," she said.

Sanders cited the mainstream media and the Washington bureaucracy.

"They thought the elections last night were going to be a referendum on this president, and once again, he proved, never underestimate him," she said.

"And the American people put him and other Republicans in place for a reason. They have an agenda."

President Trump and Republicans are focused on issues such as getting a healthcare system that works and improving the country's economy, she said.

"Frankly, I think Republicans are going to get tired of winning at some point if the Democrats don't ever get an agenda," she said, citing a phrase often used by President Trump on the campaign trail.

Republican Karen Handel won Georgia's special House election runoff on Tuesday night. The win dealt a major blow to Democrats who were hoping to score an early win against Trump ahead of the 2018 midterm elections.

The Republican victory deals a serious blow to Democratic momentum, with the GOP already pointing to Handel's victory as evidence that backlash against Trump won't win the House for Democrats.
