Democrats Retake Congress in Blue Wave, Dealing Blow to Trump

news18.com —

Democrats won full control of both chambers of Congress in the November 3 US midterm elections, a sweeping "Blue Wave" victory that dealt a major blow to President Donald Trump in the final two years of his presidency. The victory flipped both the Senate and the House of Representatives from Republican control. Trump and JD Vance blamed the Iran conflict and rising oil prices for the poll debacle, which the administration reportedly bore the brunt of. In his first public appearance after the rout on November 4, Trump focused on a White House ballroom construction ceremony rather than the results. He conceded defeat on Truth Social, claiming Republicans would have won "had he been on the ballot," while expressing willingness to work with Democrats.
