However, he expressed no regret over the military campaign, insisting that he had made the right decision and would do the same again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Democratic candidates made significant gains in several traditionally Republican strongholds, dealing a setback to Trump&#8217;s party. The president blamed Republican candidates for failing to mobilize voters, arguing that the outcome would have been different had his own name been on the ballot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rising costs linked to the war, inflation and public concerns over government policies also emerged as key issues during the election campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking to Fox News, Trump defended his administration&#8217;s economic record and rejected the suggestion that the results reflected public anger toward him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, divisions within the Republican Party have reportedly deepened over Trump&#8217;s role in selecting candidates and the party&#8217;s failure to address voters&#8217; concerns. The Democrats&#8217; stronger position in Congress could make it more difficult for the Trump administration to advance legislation, secure budget measures and push through key appointments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump has acknowledged that the war against Iran hurt Republican candidates in the midterm elections, while continuing to defend his decision to launch military action against Tehran.
