Democrats win Congress but face Trump's veto threat
Democrats have won majorities in both the House and Senate in the midterm elections, but President Donald Trump has vowed to use his veto power to block their legislative agenda, declaring he will become "Mr Veto." The Democratic victory was driven by public anger over living costs, tariffs, and the war in Iran, which has raised fuel prices. Trump has signaled he will reject bills sent by Democrats, though he also offered a conciliatory note, saying he is willing to work with them. The Constitution grants the president veto authority, which Congress can only override with a two-thirds supermajority in each chamber. Democrats are preparing investigations into alleged corruption, while the White House says it is ready to fight back against any probes or impeachment proceedings.
