Donald Trump: Becoming Mr. Veto

After criticizing both Fox News and other Republicans after the Democrats' victory in the midterm elections, Donald Trump called into Fox News' election watch. There he said that he will stop future proposals from the Democrats by using his veto power.

- It is one of the strongest powers a president has. They will submit proposals that are completely insane, and I will veto them.

He has also previously mentioned the right of veto as a tool he will use and then called himself "Mr. Veto".

Believe in collaborations

At the same time, Donald Trump says that he is ready to cooperate with the Democrats on certain issues. Among other things, he believes that cooperation on migration can be achieved, says Trump.

The Democrats appear to have gained a majority in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. That makes it more difficult for Donald Trump to get his policies through in his last two years as president.

An issue that recurred during the election campaign is the US's involvement in the Middle East and the war in Iran.

In an interview with the American television channel Fox News, the president says that the election loss can be partly blamed on the war in Iran:

- I think that some of it may have something to do with it, while people understand the importance of what I did in Iran. I think it will be more important historically than tonight.
