Annie Andrews's South Carolina win sharpens LBC's verdict on Trump

Emily Maitlis interrupts the discussion with a Senate call, prompting her co-host to describe Trump's "total comeuppance".

Why this story? One of the most watched videos since yesterday, with 84,008 views.

''The total comeuppance of President Trump’

Emily Maitlis looks at her laptop and stops mid-sentence: the decision desk has called South Carolina for Democrat Annie Andrews. It is a separate result from the Texas call we reported here, and another moment when an incoming announcement changes the studio conversation.

"We are seeing the total comeuppance of President Donald Trump," her co-host says. The LBC excerpt, carrying The News Agents branding, drew about 84,000 views in its first seven hours today.

The discussion moves from the result to Republican leadership. Maitlis's co-host argues that Democratic victories in solidly Republican territory will leave Trump with little room to push back against the results, while Republicans consider the party's future. That is his assessment, rather than an outcome the clip establishes.

An on-screen graphic supplies Trump's contrasting response: "If I were on the ballot we would have won in a landslide". LBC's accompanying coverage reports that Republicans have lost control of both the House and Senate.
