Republicans lost control of both chambers of Congress. As a result, Trump will not be able to advance his agenda through legislation during the two remaining years of his tenure in the White House.
Following the election result, the president has adopted a confrontational stance toward the incoming Democratic majority in Congress.
On Friday, he appointed his adviser Stephen Miller, a representative of the far right, as White House chief of staff.
On Saturday, he announced that he had proposed Dana White for the position of White House press secretary. White is the president of the UFC, the world’s largest mixed martial arts (MMA) organization.
