President Donald Trump also addressed his hopes of running for office again despite a constitutional restriction<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The US president Trump has said he would repeatedly use his presidential veto power if Democrats win control of Congress in Tuesday\u2019s midterm elections.<\/p>\n

The POTUS suggested he could block legislation for a month or two before attempting to reach agreements with Democratic lawmakers.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The comments came in a preview of his New York Post podcast interview with Miranda Devine.<\/p>\n

\u201cI guess I\u2019ll become Mr. Veto,\u201d Trump shared. \u201cI\u2019m not going to let them ruin it.\u201d<\/p>\n

He described how he believes the approach could eventually bring both sides to the negotiating table.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ll be sending stuff up. You veto it,\u201d he said. \u201cEventually, after a month or two of getting all vetoed \u2013 you know, it\u2019s just waste \u2013 they come over and make a deal.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s plan if Democrats win control of Congress<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Trump\u2019s comments outline a possible response if Republicans lose control of either chamber.<\/p>\n

Democrats need to gain three seats to take the House of Representatives, while the Senate contest is also being closely watched.<\/p>\n

Most polls cited in the reporting suggest Democrats are well positioned to make the gains needed in the House.<\/p>\n

Seven Senate races are being fought within narrow margins, though Republican strategists say their own data shows a more competitive picture, with several contests still considered toss-ups or within reach.<\/p>\n

Trump has continued campaigning in traditionally Republican states, with rallies scheduled in Kansas and Iowa on Sunday.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

During campaign appearances, Donald Trump has described the US as having the \u2018greatest economy in history\u2019 and argued that polls do not accurately capture Republican support.<\/p>\n

Also, he made clear that he hopes the scenario he outlined will not happen.<\/p>\n

\u201cHopefully we don\u2019t have to worry about that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

How many bills has Trump vetoed as president?<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Trump has vetoed two bills during his second term, compared with 10 during his first term in the White House.<\/p>\n

Additionally, a Democratic-controlled House could bring investigations into Trump, his administration and people close to him. Democrats have said they intend to scrutinise the president and his allies if they regain power.<\/p>\n

Democrats controlled the House during the final two years of his first presidency, while Republicans retained the Senate.<\/p>\n

The split made it harder for Democratic-backed legislation to reach the president\u2019s desk.<\/p>\n

The interview also touched on Trump\u2019s future beyond his current term. He shared that he would like to run for president again, while acknowledging the constitutional restriction.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\u201cI\u2019d love to run again if I had the chance, but the language is very exacting,\u201d he said, referring to the 22nd Amendment, which prohibits anyone from being elected president more than twice.<\/p>\n

Trump added that he believes there is still plenty of time left in his current term: \u201cWe have more than two years left. That\u2019s a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n
