Which party controlled congress in 1978?

Answer 1

Republican

The Democratic Party was the majority party of the U.S. Senate from January 3, 1955 until January 3, 1981 and of the U.S. House of Representatives from January 3, 1955 until January 3, 1995.

Answer 2

Republicans controlled the Senate from 1981 to 1987, and the White House from 1981 to 1993. Democrats controlled Congress

Actually it was the Democrats that controlled the Congress with Reagan as President

Starting in 1980 and again after the 1982 midterm elections, President Reagan worked with a split Congress with a Republican majority after the 1980 Senate midterm elections and a Democratic majority after the 1980 House midterm elections. The conservatives (whom Reagan backed) lost a substantial number of seats in Congress in 1982.[100] By early 1983, however, the recession had ended and Reagan was re-elected President, in 1984, with a record-breaking 525 electoral votes.[101] The Republicans' six-year control over the Senate ended in 1986, after numerous issues (the Iran Contra Affair,[102] unpopular support for Reagan's aid to the Nicaragua Contras,[103] the cost of the Star Wars weapons program,[103] farming woes[103] and trade gaps)[103] damaged the Reagan Administration's image. By 1988, however, Reagan was redeemed of these scandals and Republican Vice President George H.W. Bush won the 1988 US Presidential election by a landslide.
