Trump stated that things will go well for the U.S. for the remainder of his term

US President Donald Trump promised that America will fare well over the remaining two years of his term, and assured that he would frequently exercise his veto power now that the Democrats control Congress.

"I think we’re going to do very well over the next two years. We have a very powerful tool, which is the veto, and I intend to use it quite often," he said in an interview with Salem News.

Trump previously stated that he would become "Mr. Veto" regarding the Democrats' legislative initiatives.

 According to preliminary results from the U.S. midterm elections, in which Americans voted for all 435 members of the House of Representatives and 35 senators, the Republicans have lost control of both chambers of Congress. Trump publicly congratulated the Democrats on their victory and stated that the Republicans could have achieved significantly better results had he been involved in the elections.
