ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Democrats made gains right across the United States in the midterm elections. It leaves Republicans facing a major defeat and Donald Trump facing two more years in the White House with less control.

The Journal political columnist and University of Galway law lecturer Larry Donnelly joins us to examine the results.
