JD Vance says Iran war is real reason Republicans lost midterms
Briefing by News4U · First published
Vice President JD Vance said on Wednesday that the war against Iran doomed Republicans in the U.S. midterm elections, writing on X that "the reason we lost is the war" and that "the president himself said so last night," The Guardian and Al Jazeera reported. Vance argued that anyone claiming the conflict was worth "losing the Senate for the next 6 years" should say so honestly. Trump told the Wall Street Journal Iran was "a piece of it" but said he had no regrets and "would have done it again." [1] [2]
