What the coverage shows

Most outlets converge on Democrats taking control of both chambers and on that result being framed as a check on Trump. NPR, NBC, BBC and the New York Times emphasize what Democrats can do with the new power and where Trump can still block them, while France 24, the South China Morning Post and PBS foreground Trump’s handling of the next Congress and broader policy fights. The Independent alone uses the strongest personal language, calling Trump “humiliated,” and ABC alone appears to focus first on his post-election comments and ballroom project.
