The United States has held its midterm elections, and they proved to be an unmitigated disaster for the Democrats, with the Republicans taking control of Congress.
This result will make the next (and final) two years of Barack Obama’s presidency extremely tough, as Senate tries to block everything Obama wants to push through.

This video shows The Young Turks summing up the midterms, calling a spade a spade and describing the result as a “bloodbath.” Oh dear.
