Donald Trump: if I ran, we would definitely win
Donald Trump attributed the Republican losses in the midterm elections to his absence as a candidate, claiming victory would have been certain if he had run. He expressed willingness to accept the election results and collaborate with Democrats. The midterms are crucial for reshaping Congress, with all 435 House members and 35 Senate seats contested. Early reports indicate Democrats have gained seven House seats previously held by Republicans, potentially leading to a 248-187 majority. In Senate races, Democrats have reclaimed seats in states like South Carolina and Texas, with more results pending.
