特朗普总统将于周日晚间出席哥伦比亚广播公司(CBS)新闻节目《60分钟》的专访,这是他在周二中期选举中共和党惨失众参两院控制权后的首次采访。

与此同时,国会议员们正准备本周重返国会山,在民主党翻控两院后,两党内部都在为领导层职位展开角逐。知情人士透露

Meanwhile, members of Congress are preparing to return to Capitol Hill this week, some duking it out for leadership positions within their respective parties after Democrats flipped both chambers. Insiders can
