GOP's Iran War Cost Republicans the Election, Vance Says

novinky.cz (Czech) —

US Vice President J.D. Vance blamed the Republican Party's congressional election defeat on the war with Iran, stating on X that "everyone knows" this was the cause. Vance said the loss was not due to Republican voters staying home, but rather Americans who voted for Trump in 2024 shifting to Democrats. He admitted a pollster predicted a 13-point national defeat, which still shocked him. The vice president cited voter feedback demanding an end to the war, focus on inflation, prioritizing America, and changing the relationship with Israel. President Trump partially acknowledged the Iran war's role but said he does not regret starting it.
