United States: Strategic developments in Washington D.C.
Donald Trump, President of the United States, in an interview with CBS News, before closing the polling centers across the US in this year's midterm elections, in response to a question about the possibility of Democrats gaining control of Congress in the coming year said: 'I have the final power; they call it veto power.' Trump said if necessary he is ready to veto Democrats' decisions and if they gain a majority in the House of Representatives or the Senate, he welcomes being called 'Mr. Veto' in describing his approach towards Democrats. Trump said regardless of the election results and the composition of Congress in the coming year, he is confident that he will be able to move forward with his programs over the next two years. The President of the United States emphasized that if Democrats in Congress try to limit his authority, he can increase his use of executive power.
