Democrats vow to block Trump's agenda with control of House, Senate

Time now just about 7-12. You decide. Democrats still celebrating those big wins in this week's midterm elections as Republicans now debate what went wrong. So Douglas Zader is back inside in Washington in the studio with how both parties are really preparing for a new era of divided government. Good morning, and in this midterm aftermath, there are not many signs of outreach between the president and Democratic leaders in Congress as they prepare for probably a combative two years to come. President Trump watching as a ceremonial beam is put in place as he constructs his new White House ballroom and deconstructs what happened on Tuesday, massive Republican losses despite dozens of rallies around the country. There was such love at those rallies, it was incredible, and we weren't able to transfer the love to candidates. His vice president was more blunt, writing a post-election analysis that landed on this. The reason we lost is the war. And polling does indicate that along with the economy, the war with Iran may have been a big driver. Today begins the great American The Democrats still basking in the victories and promising to bog down the president's final two years. Whenever Trump defies the will of the American people or the law, we will launch investigations, take him to court and entangle him in legislative razor wire. But Democrats have their own internal leadership questions to sort out and that could expose divisions within the party. Republicans on Capitol Hill and elsewhere ponder what's next, especially in 2028. Some likely contenders for the White House were trying to distance themselves from Tuesday's losses. This was a rejection of Republicans in Washington, and Democrats just happened to be the beneficiary. Well, despite Democrats controlling now both chambers of Congress starting next year, the president says he is not concerned at all about the possibility of another impeachment. And Democratic leaders were kind of playing that possibility down as well. But you never know here moving forward. Oh, it's going to get very interesting in the months ahead. All right, Doug, we appreciate it from Washington this morning, 713.
