The 2026 U.S. midterm elections could reshape the final two years of Donald Trump’s presidency. On November 3, American voters will decide all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 35 Senate seats, with Republicans defending narrow majorities in Congress. The result could determine how much of Trump’s legislative agenda can move forward. So what happens if control of Congress changes hands? Could Trump’s tariffs, spending plans and other legislative priorities face a roadblock? And could a new congressional majority trigger a wave of investigations and oversight? Firstpost breaks down the 2026 U.S. midterm elections and Trump’s political position in the battle for control of Congress. --- Donald Trump | US Midterm Elections 2026 | US Midterm Election | 2026 Midterm Elections | US Elections 2026 | American Midterm Elections | Congress Elections 2026 | US Congress | House Of Representatives | US House Elections | Senate Elections 2026 | US Senate | Firstpost #donaldtrump
