From veto threats to dealmaking: Trump’s post-midterm balancing act | DW News
President Trump struck several different tones after Republicans lost ground in the midterm elections. While he argued on Truth Social that Republicans would have won “in a landslide” had he been on the ballot, he also promoted a “VETO” hat that appeared to signal confrontation with Congress. At the same time, Trump has left open the possibility of working with Democrats on some issues. Scott Lucas, Professor of American Studies at University College Dublin, explains what these competing messages could mean for Trump’s remaining time in office.
