Trump Acknowledges Iran War's Role in Republican Losses in US Midterms
President Donald Trump acknowledged that the war in Iran contributed to Republican losses in the recent US midterm elections, which resulted in Democrats gaining control of both the House and Senate. While Trump defended his Iran policy's long-term importance, he noted voters were affected by rising fuel prices linked to the conflict. He expressed willingness to work with Democrats on issues like immigration but warned he would veto legislation he found unacceptable. Trump also stated he does not expect changes in his Cabinet following the election results.
