Democrats win House, but Trump still holds a veto
What the coverage says
Democrats are set to control both chambers of Congress when the new term begins on January 3, a shift that ends the president's ability to pass laws using Republican votes alone, according to Mint. In response to losing the House, Mint reported that Donald Trump chanted "veto" and indicated he would use that power to block Democratic legislation, describing the mechanism as his "ultimate power" according to NDTV. Mint also questioned what the president can actually block, while NDTV explained the mechanics of his veto authority. The Economic Times framed the outcome simply as a Democratic House win occurring alongside a persistent presidential veto.
