Trump to face Democratic-controlled Congress in both chambers for the first time after midterm elections losses

What's behind this

On Wednesday Democrats celebrated their midterm victory, saying they will use their congressional majorities to rein in President Donald Trump and warning of possible two‑year deadlock in Washington. Trump, in his first post‑election appearance, showcased an under‑construction White House ballroom and accepted his electoral losses. For the first time, the Republican president will have to contend with a Democratic‑controlled Congress in both the House and the Senate.
