Trump vows to veto 'insane' Democratic bills after midterm losses

Key Points:

• President Donald Trump vowed to veto what he called "insane" legislation from Democrats following their major midterm election victories, while expressing willingness to work with them after initial vetoes.
• Democrats gained control of both chambers of Congress, flipping several Republican-held seats and positioning themselves to block Trump's agenda and investigate his administration.
• Trump attributed Republican losses partly to rising gasoline prices linked to the conflict with Iran, suggesting voters accepted the military actions but were reluctant to pay higher fuel costs.
• He acknowledged some GOP candidates failed to energize his MAGA base, noting that his strong rally support did not always translate into votes for endorsed candidates.
• Despite the disappointing results for Republicans, Trump praised Democrats for their efforts and rejected framing the outcome as a personal defeat since he was not on the ballot.
