  The correct answer is : 1. Frustration with Buchanan's inaction, 3. Failure to reinforce federal forts, 6. Authorizing federal troops to attack fort Sumter.

Explanation:  Buchanan admitted that he had no authority to decide what would be the relationship that South Carolina had already separated from the Union would have with the federal government. Buchanan refused to hand over any federal strength he could maintain and ordered reinforcements to be sent to Fort Sumter, however this did not come to fruition and a new call was made for a second aid mission but he was late and the president could not act. The crisis increased and Buchanan wished to leave the white house.

on 6 november american voters will elect members of the house of representatives and the senate, which together are called congress.

both houses of congress are currently controlled by the republican party, which backs president donald trump.

the democrats think they can win control of the house of representatives this year by winning a majority of seats.

doing so would let them block or delay the president’s plans by refusing to enact them.

all 435 seats in the house of representatives are up for election.

if the democrats want to take control of the house by having the most seats, they’re going to have to claim at least 23 from the republicans.
