The U.S. president said that the Republicans' victory was thwarted because his name was missing from the ballots.

The Republicans would have won the U.S. congressional midterm elections by a landslide if Trump's name had been on the ballot. The U.S. president made this statement amid the Democrats' initial successes.

This was reported by The New York Times, citing a post by U.S. President Donald Trump on Truth Social.

What Trump Wrote

The U.S. president emphasized that he himself did not run in this election.

“I wasn’t on the ballot, but if I had been, we would have won by a landslide!” Trump wrote.

A White House official offered a similar explanation a little earlier in a comment to CNN. According to him, Trump’s voters turn out at the polls precisely when the president’s name appears on the ballot.

Trump Acknowledges Results

According to The New York Times, Trump stated that he acknowledges the election results and will work with the Democrats, who are projected to are set to gain control of both chambers of Congress.

At the same time, the White House is taking a hard line. An administration official, in comments to Bloomberg correspondent Jeff Mason, stated that Democratic voters will regret their choice once fuel prices drop rapidly following the resolution of the conflict with Iran.

“No matter how today ends, President Trump’s resolve to stop the radical left will only grow stronger. “Buckle up,” he added.

Voter sentiment was not in the president’s favor. According to preliminary results from a CNN poll, about 60% of Americans who went to the polls disapprove of Trump’s job performance.

U.S. foreign policy may also hinge on the election results. According to Axios, if the Republicans lose, Trump may be inclined to launch a large-scale strike against Iran.
