Earlier, Trump commented on the Democrats’ gains in the US midterm elections, saying: "If my name had been on the ballot, we would have won in a landslide."
Trump indicated he is prepared to accept the election results and is willing to work with Democrats, adding: "Perhaps we can reach common ground."
Trump not only hinted at using the veto, but described it as a pressure tool that could ultimately bring Democrats to the negotiating table.
He said the process might begin with rejecting bills for several months before both sides return to negotiations and reach compromises.
