Democrats have won control of the US House of Representatives in the midterm elections, and a victory in the Senate also appears likely, according to a preview of POLITICO’s Berlin Playbook podcast. The outcome is presented as a setback for Republicans, with Donald Trump already responding forcefully.
Helge Fuhst, head of the editorial teams at POLITICO, Welt and Business Insider, reports from Washington on the election result and its potential implications for domestic and foreign policy. The podcast also considers what the midterms could mean ahead of the presidential election in two years.
