Watch midterm election results in full: Trump’s Republican Party loses control of US Congress
Watch back the dramatic results from the crucial midterm elections on Wednesday (4 November), after the Democrats won back full control of Congress.
The Hill
What the coverage shows
The New York Times and PBS NewsHour frame the grouping differently. The Times focuses on Americans explaining why they rejected Trump’s Republican Party, with a Kansas G.O.P. voter saying the party has “lost its way,” while PBS NewsHour is the only outlet here that foregrounds Trump previewing ballroom construction the day after voters rejected Republican rule.
