Trump: Iran war affected election results and I will not change my decision

Iran ·

Trump acknowledged on Wednesday that the war on Iran affected the Republicans' loss of their majority in the midterm congressional elections. He said he had expected its repercussions on the results but would not change his decision.

US-Iran relations have been adversarial since Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution, and the Iran file has been a contested issue in American politics.
