Democrats took the House, Senate and a good deal of Republican pride: So who are the real winners and losers?

Democrats are projected to secure 254 seats in the House, with Hakeem Jeffries likely becoming the first Black Speaker. Trump's influence waned as many of his endorsed candidates lost, while moderate Democrats thrived by appealing to independents. Progressive Democrats also made gains, with notable victories in primaries. The Graham family's hold on South Carolina's Senate seat ended with a Democratic win. The Democratic Congress is expected to impact support for Ukraine positively. JD Vance faced criticism after the election, while James Talarico and Jon Ossoff emerged as prominent Democratic figures. Trump's inner circle also faced setbacks.
