Blue Tsunami: The Beginning of the End for Trump

dn.pt (Portuguese) —

Democrats won control of both chambers of Congress in the US midterm elections, delivering a major defeat to President Donald Trump and his Republican Party. The result marks a significant political shift away from the radical right. Democrats secured comfortable majorities in the House and Senate, with notable victories in traditionally conservative states including Texas, Ohio, Georgia, Kansas, Alaska, and Mississippi. They also flipped several governorships, and symbolic wins included the first Native American woman elected governor and the first Black senator from Mississippi in 145 years. Trump dismissed the results, claiming his absence from the ballot affected outcomes, but several candidates he personally endorsed lost. The defeat signals the beginning of the end of his political influence, as Congress can now check his agenda.
