What will the unconditional victory of the Democrats in the congressional elections bring? - Reuters The Republicans suffered one of the most extensive defeats in recent decades of American political history: the Democrats not only regained the majority in Congress, but also gained control of both chambers - the Senate and the House of Representatives. The defeat was especially painful in traditionally Republican states, with Democrats winning in Kansas, South Carolina and Texas, where Republicans had been dominant for decades. The results of the midterm elections were a severe political blow to Donald Trump and his administration. Trump has had two years of extremely difficult coexistence with the opposition Congress. With control of both houses, Democrats will be able to block White House legislation, block the confirmation of administration nominees, conduct investigations and demand the release of documents and evidence. In fact, Democrats have an opportunity to turn the remainder of Trump's presidency into a permanent political conflict, using parliamentary mechanisms to put pressure on the Republican administration. Thus, instead of the political stability promised by the Republicans, the United States is entering a new period of deep institutional conflict. Trump will retain the powers of the president and the right of veto, but he will no longer be able to rule the country without serious opposition from Congress. Until the next presidential election, American politics, judging by the current balance of power, will be accompanied by investigations, mutual accusations, struggles for influence and constant attempts by both parties to strengthen their positions.
