"A Congress in the hands of Democrats will block Trump's agenda"

CNN Portugal10 September 2026 at 14:44

The electoral polls indicate difficulties for the Republican party and for President Donald Trump. Faced with these unfavorable results, Trump returned to the political discourse he used during the presidential campaign.

Analyst Daniela Melo explains that these elections could be decisive for the second half of Trump's term. The article suggests that a Congress controlled by the Democrats could block the President's political agenda.

The article's title anticipates that a Congress in the hands of the Democrats will function as an obstacle to the implementation of Trump's policies during the remainder of his term.
