Inflation, war, corruption: Will anger at Trump cost Republicans at midterms?
Donald Trump and the Republican Party are making final appeals to US midterm voters on Monday to head off a predicted Democratic wave. Such a wave could give Democrats control of Congress and impose tighter political constraints on the president for the first time in two years. Trump's popularity is at a historic low, and many expect voters to punish Republicans at the polls. The headline points to inflation, war and corruption as possible sources of public anger. A France 24 report takes a closer look at the situation.
📊 What it means for markets
Midterm results can shift expectations for US policy, which may influence the dollar and US stocks, and sometimes bonds. Gold, oil, euro and crypto are often less directly affected, and reactions can vary.
