Republicans turn on Trump after devastating midterm losses hand Democrats control of Congress

GOP insiders blame Trump after Election Night's blue tsunami flipped both chambers, with Democrats scoring seven Senate and 27 House pickups.

What the coverage shows

All of the outlets frame the story as Democrats winning Congress and Trump taking a rebuke, with several, including the Los Angeles Times, PBS NewsHour and the Associated Press, explicitly using that language. The main differences are in emphasis: BBC News and NBC News focus on what Democrats can do with their new power and the veto clash ahead, while The Hill’s later piece is about Trump’s post-midterm remarks and the other Hill item quotes DeSantis calling the results a rebuke. Reuters is the only outlet in this set to foreground a Republican revolt against Trump.
