US Midterms: Mitt Romney criticizes Republicans' "bad politics"
Cruz: Republicans haven't understood voters' concerns +++ DeSantis disagrees with Trump over interpretation of election defeat +++ Trump acknowledges impact of Iran war on midterms +++ The news blog.
US Senator Ted Cruz has criticized his Republican Party for failing to address the economic concerns of many Americans, following the party's poor performance in the midterm elections. Cruz described the losses as a "repudiation of historic proportions, like Watergate times". He cited high gasoline prices, increasing foreclosures and car repossessions, and a record number of people donating blood plasma as evidence of worsening economic conditions. According to Cruz, these economic hardships were a major factor in the Republican Party's defeat.
