Trump tells CNBC he can work with Dems on ‘many more things than people understand’cnbc.com· 10d
CNBC's live blog tracks a Democratic midterm wave on 4 November 2026 — sweeping the House and Senate, flipping five governorships including Texas and Georgia, and driving the Dow up more than 1,500 points — as President Trump tells CNBC he can work with Democrats on "many more things than people understand" while blaming the Iran war's oil prices for the losses. The blog also covers Hakeem Jeffries' speaker bid, Pete Hegseth's uncertain future, voters rejecting data center measures in 40 of 41 races, and uncalled Senate counts in Mississippi and Alaska.
