Trump faces Democratic probes after midterm losses

ctvnews.ca —

Donald Trump faces a politically weakened final two years after his party's decisive midterm losses, paving the way for Democratic-led investigations and potential impeachment efforts. The results shift power to Capitol Hill, where Democrats can now check his authority. Democrats, gaining control of the House and Senate, plan to target Trump's business dealings, the Epstein investigation handling, and corporate corruption allegations. They will wield subpoena powers and committee control, while Trump's veto threat and slow-walk strategies from his first term may resurface. Voter surveys show two-thirds blame Trump's policies for economic harm, and most view him negatively on leadership and priorities. His endorsed candidates lost in several states, including Texas and South Carolina, while he faces legislative fights and diminished influence at home and abroad.
