President Donald Trump acknowledged that the war in Iran played a role in Republicans’ losses in Tuesday’s midterm elections, as Democrats prepared to take control of both the House and Senate and challenge his legislative agenda.

In an interview with Fox News, Trump said Democrats would send legislation he considered “insane” to his desk and that he would veto it.
