Vance Says Republicans Lost Midterms Due to Iran War, US Relationship With Israel
Vice President JD Vance acknowledged on Wednesday that the US war with Iran and its relationship with Israel were the top reasons for the Republicans getting crushed in the midterm elections.
Vance made the comments in a long post on X, where he said he spoke with a pollster whom he described as “one of the smartest people I know in politics.” He said that the pollster told him that “a lot of Trump 2024 voters were angry and planning to vote for Democrats” and asked those “who had abandoned us what would cause them to come back on our team.”
The top four responses were:
- End the war
- Focus on cost of living/inflation
- Put America First
- Change the US relationship with Israel
