JD Vance blames Iran war for Republicans’ 2026 midterm losses: ‘Our voters switched to Democrats’
JD Vance blamed the Iran war for Republican midterm losses, saying voters who backed Trump in 2024 switched to Democrats in 2026.
Washington: In a candid online post, US Vice President JD Vance pointed to Iran's ongoing conflict as the primary reason for Republican midterm election losses. While some argued the war's cost might be justified, Vance maintained that losing the Senate for the next six years was a heavy price to pay. The Democratic wave swept across the nation, overturning Republican majorities in both the House and Senate in a nationwide landslide.
New Democrats, eager to reshape the political landscape, vowed to challenge President Donald Trump and restore balance to the government after two consecutive years of GOP control.
