期中選舉將於11月3日舉行,民主黨需在參眾兩院各淨增4席才能翻轉共和黨的多數優勢。
根據一位白宮官員和兩名知情人士說法,白宮數個月來一直為民主黨可能贏得期中選舉重掌國會做準備,他們擬定計畫,以便透過行政權力繼續推進美國總統川普的議程之重要部分。
路透社報導,這3位匿名消息人士指出,此事涉及的高層官員包括白宮副幕僚長米勒(Stephen Miller)與白宮管理及預算局(Office of Management and Budget)局長伏特(Russell Vought)等人。
這些高層官員從4月以來一直與白宮法律顧問辦公室合作,盤點川普可在未獲國會批准之下,於移民、關稅、住房成本和聯邦支出等層面推動哪些行政作為。
匿名的白宮官員表示,白宮法律顧問夏夫(Will Scharf)及其團隊也正研究「川普依法能自行採取哪些措施、在哪些方面可以挑戰其權力限制,還有如何於法庭上為這些決定辯護」。
民主黨須各增4席 才能翻轉兩院
期中選舉於11月3日進行,若民主黨拿下國會,將有權調查總統、阻撓立法並限制川普的支出優先事項,但川普仍會保有在貿易、外交政策及聯邦官僚體系的廣泛行政權。
民主黨需要在美國聯邦眾議院與聯邦參議院都淨增4席,才能推翻共和黨目前於兩院掌握的微弱多數。
民調顯示民主黨可望贏得眾議院,但參議院選情仍難以預測。

Poll expert Dai Lian analyzed the Taipei mayoral election situation and pointed out that although Chiang Wanan has stabilized the base of the dark blue, the light blue voters have lost, and Shen Boyang's support has reversed the lead. Darien emphasized that the polls reflect the "ocean current effect", and the blue and white camp has fallen into a spiral of silence. There are strong signals that the election situation is changing.

The U.S. midterm elections are approaching, and experts predict that if the Democratic Party wins control of Congress, it will pose resistance to Trump's trade tariff policies. Although Democrats plan to push for the repeal of the tariff bill, Trump's trade agenda is expected to continue as it is difficult to reach the two-thirds threshold in Congress required to override a presidential veto.

The Taipei mayoral election debate sparked heated discussions. Professor Chen Shifen (Darry Weng), who lives in the United States, published an article criticizing the current mayor Chiang Wanan for frequently using offensive terms during the debate, questioning his education, character and debating attitude. He believed that Chiang Wanan was arrogant in the debate and had a habit of lying without caring about the facts.

The Taipei mayoral debate ended with Shen Fuxiong giving 84 points to Chiang Wanan and 69 points to Shen Boyang. Shen Fuxiong criticized Shen Boyang's political views for being too small, but believed that his long-term momentum had created a "sacred altar" effect. Although Jiang Wanan's outstanding performance saved the KMT's election, it was still difficult to win over his opponents.
