US Democrats seize control of Congress in midterms, dealing Trump a major political setback.

 

Democrats have won the US Midterm elections by getting majorities in both the Senate and House of Representatives. The party has made significant enroads into Republican territory, delivering a major political setback for President Donald Trump. The results will reshape the balance of power in Washington for the remaining two years of Trump's presidency. Responding to the results in his social media platform, Trump said he will veto Democrats proposals. Voters say when elected in 2024 Trump promised to arrest high inflation, but they say his tariffs on foreign goods and war against Iran have only worsened the economic situation for many Americans. Voters also expressed widespread concern over government corruption. We spoke to Geopolitical Analyst, Aaron Nga'mbi
