Trump concedes Iran war hurt GOP but says he'd 'do it again'
President Donald Trump conceded the unpopular 8-month-old war against Iran contributed to his Republican Party's midterm election losses but insisted he would "do it again" and remains "locked in" on the conflict. Democrats won control of Congress, with a handful of Senate and House races still uncalled. Trump threatened a post-election full-scale bombardment of Iran if Tehran didn't accept his terms, and he suggested Thursday that the election losses aren't weighing on his calculations. The election also brought a wave of Democrats pledging to regulate data centers, causing global stock markets to tumble on AI-related fears. Clergy-backed Democratic candidates and a sharp shift among Latino voters helped drive the party's decisive victories.
