Tuesday’s US midterm election stands as a defining test, as the world awaits the American electorate’s judgment on Donald Trump’s presidency – and how that verdict may shape his demeanor, agenda and potential restless reaction, political analysts and former officials noted.
On the one hand, a strong Democratic showing could intensify Congressional scrutiny over some of the most unconventional, ambitious and transformative policies enacted by a U.S. president in the nation’s 250-year history.
At the same time, the former president is not directly on the ballot, and structural shifts are unlikely to alter the fundamentals. Regardless of the outcome, Trump is all but certain to retain the power to obstruct legislation that conflicts with his agenda.
