Expert: US Midterms Will Be a Tough Fight for Trump's Party
Less than a month remains before the US congressional midterm elections. An expert expects a difficult contest for Trump's party, with the result set to affect both domestic and foreign policy.
Fewer than four weeks remain until the US midterm elections for Congress, which take place on 3 November. An expert says the vote will be a hard fight for the party of President Donald Trump.
What is at stake
Voters will decide which party controls Congress from now on. That in turn determines how freely President Trump will be able to act in the coming years. Far-reaching consequences are therefore expected, both in US domestic policy and in foreign policy.
A verdict on the president
Midterm elections are often described as a referendum on the president's performance. Americans use their ballots to assess what the head of state has accomplished. The outcome will show whether control of Congress stays with Trump's party or passes to another.
