Democrats win Congress, reshaping Trump's final two years
Democrats have won control of both the House and Senate in the November 3 midterm elections, fundamentally reshaping President Donald Trump's final two years in office and granting the opposition party immense oversight and legislative power. President Trump has congratulated Democrats and expressed willingness to work with them, while emphasizing his "total veto power" to block legislation. Democratic leaders are prioritizing aggressive investigations into his administration and Cabinet members over an immediate third impeachment, which they view as unlikely to succeed. The incoming Democratic majority plans a sprawling investigative agenda targeting Trump family finances, immigration policies, and the Iran war, while effectively halting his legislative agenda and judicial nominations. Analysts note potential for narrow bipartisan cooperation on infrastructure and prescription drug costs.
