Especially for the madman in the Kremlin. Democrats now have both houses of Congress and, in effect, one tool: a committee subpoena. The numbers as of Thursday morning, according to the decision desk headquarters: 241 seats in the House of Representatives with 218 needed and 54 in the Senate with 51. Alaska and Mississippi still count. Republicans lost Senate seats they had held for decades in Texas, Kansas and South Carolina. Jeffries called the result "an American tsunami." Now account. 60 votes are needed to override a filibuster in the Senate. Override a veto, 67 in the Senate and 290 in the House of Representatives. Democrats lack six Republicans from the first rung; About forty members of Congress and more than a dozen senators are missing from the second. Trump briefly warned a week before the election: "I veto everything." Of his election promises, this is perhaps the easiest to fulfill. A simple majority is sufficient for subpoenas, discussions and requests for documents. Starting in January, the committees will be handed over to the Democrats and chairmen will be able to call ministers under oath. The Pelosi House has already gone down this path in 2019: investigations, impeachment, acquittal in the Senate. The Democrats now have the Senate, but 67 votes are still needed to convict the president, and there is nowhere to get them. The first scene inside the party has already been played. Schumer announced Wednesday that he will be re-elected as majority leader, and several recently elected Democratic senators have vowed not to vote for him. Illinois Governor Pritzker issued a "Day 1 agenda" to Congress, which he does not sit on. This is how 2028 campaigns usually start. There is a precedent for this situation, and it is unpleasant for the Democrats. In 1946, Republicans took control of both houses under Truman. For two years, Congress passed its laws, and the president vetoed them. In 1948, Truman toured the country with one thesis: "A do-nothing Congress" is to blame for everything. And he won the election that everyone predicted he would lose. Trump can't run in 2028, but this plan is ideal for his successor.
