When asked whether the defeat of the Republicans in the US midterm elections was due to the Iran war, US President Donald Trump said, "It is largely true, because it increased gasoline prices a little in the short term."

In response to the question of whether the Iran war was worth the Republicans' defeat in the US midterm elections, Trump said, "Yes, it was worth it. I was acting with the idea that oil would increase even more. You have no choice, you have to do something. You cannot allow Iran to have nuclear weapons."

Trump said:

"If I had been on the ballot paper, if I had been on the ballot paper, we would have won, but we could not convey their love for me to our candidates.

I'm not worried. Trying to depose me will be their end.

"I knew the war would affect the election, but Iran getting its hands on nuclear weapons is really out of the question."

"I WILL GET GOOD WITH THE DEMOCRATS"

US President Donald Trump said, "I will probably get along well with the Democrats if they do not want to be destructive. They have already called, they want to talk about some issues. This is a good situation."
