As it became clear that the Democratic Party had won control of both houses of Congress in the US midterm elections, President Donald Trump took a conciliatory tone in a telephone interview with Fox News on Tuesday night.
He said the Democrats had "done a good job" and could work with them on many issues. However, in a telephone interview with another TV channel the same day, Trump said, "I have the power of veto, and that's my biggest power."
Pre-election polls showed President Trump's popularity at an all-time low. This was mainly due to the unpopular war with Iran and the consequent increase in the prices of petroleum products. Apparently, these factors persuaded a large number of voters to support the Democratic Party.
President Trump said in this regard that "I think one of the reasons for this was Iran, but at the same time, people also understood how important what I did in the case of Iran."
However, US Vice President JD Vance said in a statement on social media on Wednesday that the Republican Party may lose control of Congress for the next six years due to Trump's actions on Iran.
