With control of Congress split between Democrats and Republicans, lawmakers face a critical legislative stalemate. While Democrats hold the power to obstruct and initiate investigations against the administration, their narrow majority falls short of the two-thirds majority needed to override a potential presidential veto. The political gridlock underscores the challenges of governing in a divided Congress, where even routine legislation could face delays or defeat. The balance of power now hinges on negotiations, procedural maneuvers, and the president’s willingness to engage with opposition priorities.
