Democrats close in on majority in Congress: Trump faces new political crisis According to Fox News analysts' given forecasts, Democrats could win 223-235 seats in the House of Representatives. In the Senate, the party expects to win one to seven more seats, although the results of the battle for the upper house remain unclear. The main problems of the Republicans are inflation, gas prices and corruption scandals. It is these issues that are increasingly worrying American voters, while the war with Iran recedes in the background. Democrats actively accuse Trump of using the presidency for personal enrichment, pointing to his cryptocurrency projects and his family's foreign business connections. However, the allegations themselves do not amount to proven violations of the law. Republicans, for their part, are betting on crime, immigration and border security in an attempt to rally conservative voters. The election campaign is accompanied by mutual accusations of making forgeries. If there is a small difference in votes, individual results may become the subject of legal proceedings. Trump's main risk is losing control of Congress. The victory of the Democrats in at least one chamber will allow them to increase investigations into the administration and seriously complicate the implementation of the presidential plan. The election forecasts do not guarantee the final distribution of mandates, and the scale of possible legal disputes is not yet known.
