Democrats gained ground with groups that helped power President Donald Trump’s 2024 win, amid frustration with the economy and his presidency.

Donald Trump will now have to contend with angry Democrats in both the House and Senate. The Democrats can block his agenda, decide on government spending, and also initiate impeachment proceedings. This will make Trump a lame-duck president.

Trump said he could become "Mr Veto" if Republicans lose their majority in either or both houses of Congress.
