Reuters pointed out that just as American voters went to the polls for the mid-term elections - which will determine whether Trump's Republican Party will lose control of Congress - Trump unexpectedly announced the move and attributed it in part to eliminating a "negative topic". According to him, left-wing Democrats have been using the issue of Republican support for military aid to Israel to attack Republicans.
