The midterms may wrest Congress from Trump. What does he want until then?
Trump seeks a clear path for his agenda this year, but his exact priorities remain uncertain as midterms loom. If Democrats regain the House, his legislative goals may stall or derail, limiting what he can push through.
With the political landscape unsettled, Trump is likely aiming to maximize leverage and influence over Republican lawmakers and key committees, while preparing messaging for potential electoral and legal challenges ahead.
Analysts warn that a shift in control could restrict his ability to advance policy priorities, requiring strategy adjustments and focusing on targeted issues and obstruction points in a divided Congress.
