Mehdi Hasan on Trump’s midterms disaster | The News Agents

The Democrats led a ‘blue wave’ across America, taking control of both the Senate and the House in Congress, and leaving Donald Trump all but powerless in his remaining two years in the White House. Trump may have been defanged and neutered by the results of the midterms, but that man will be the “backseat driver” of the Republican Party for many years to come. Mehdi Hasan joins Lewis to dissect where it all went wrong for Donald Trump, and why, even after he leaves the White House, Trumpism is here to stay – and likely to get more extreme.
