Trump acknowledges Iran role in Democratic sweep
The US president vowed to veto any 'insane' legislation as Democrats prepared to take control both chambers of Congress and challenge his legislative agenda.
President Donald Trump commented on the Republican Party's performance in the midterms, attributing some of the losses to the ongoing war in Iran. In an interview with Fox News, the President said that Democrats would introduce legislation he deemed "insane" and that he would veto. He predicted that after a few months of vetoes, the Democrats would approach him for cooperation.
Trump asserted that while the Iran war likely played a role in Republican candidate setbacks, many voters also recognized the significance of his handling of the conflict in the region.
