Commentary: Trump is counting on his base – and risking everything
About two-thirds of Americans reject Trump's policies, but his most loyal supporters stand by him. If his candidates lose, a question arises that he probably won't like.
The US midterm elections are taking place on Tuesday, with 210 million registered voters eligible to cast their ballots. The elections will determine the composition of Congress and the course of the country's future, particularly in the last two years of Donald Trump's presidency. The outcome will reflect the American people's vision for their country's future, with issues including immigration, environmental policies, and the president's powers at stake.
The elections come two years into Trump's second term, with his administration's policies and actions under scrutiny.
