'Clear message' by Americans: US politicians react to Democratic win in US midterms
Dawn · News Desk ·
Republican John Thune says cannot let Democrats' fringe positions "become mainstream".
In a sweeping midterm rout, Democrats won control of the US Congress, with a series of upsets delivering a major rebuke to President Donald Trump and his Republican Party.
The victory handed Democrats both the House of Representatives and Senate, giving them power to block Trump’s agenda and investigate alleged corruption for the last two years of his presidency.
Many politicians, Democrats and Republicans alike, reacted as news of America’s choice broke, with the former rejoicing countrywide.
