The 2026 Midterms: A Democratic Landslide and a Republican Reckoning

The 2026 Midterms: A Democratic Landslide and a Republican Reckoning

The 2026 midterms delivered an extraordinary night for Democrats, who won control of both houses of Congress and flipped key races in states like Texas, Kansas, and South Carolina. But was this a vote of confidence in Democrats, or a resounding rejection of Trump? After nearly five hours of live election coverage from the University of Virginia's Center for Politics, Katie reunites with veteran journalist Jim Acosta and political analyst Larry Sabato to unpack the results, the biggest surprises, and what comes next. They discuss the shifting political map, what drove voters to the polls, whether moderates or progressives have the upper hand in the Democratic Party, and how Democrats should wield their newfound power in Congress. Plus, they explore what Trump might be thinking after such a devastating defeat, whether JD Vance is distancing himself from the president, and what the results mean for the race to the White House in 2028. The votes are in, but the political fallout is only beginning.
