A new survey indicates the Republican Party has a 65% chance of losing its majority in the US Congress during the November midterm elections. Aaj Tak reports this would severely hinder President Donald Trump's legislative agenda for the remainder of his term, forcing more compromise with Democrats on budget, immigration, and tariffs. Inflation remains the top voter concern, with 54% of respondents in an Ipsos survey citing it as their biggest worry. Only 32% approved of Trump's handling of the economy, while 61% opposed his current immigration policy, marking a decline in support for his signature issue.
