'Maybe he won't run': Trump drops a bombshell on JD Vance's 2028 plans after midterm loss

US President Donald Trump on Wednesday acknowledged that the Iran war was the key factor in his party's sweeping midterm election losses, after Vice President JD Vance urged Republicans to be "honest" about the unpopular conflict's impact. Asked if he agreed with Vance's remark that Iran was "the reason we lost," Trump, speaking to reporters at his White House ballroom construction site, said: "I think it's largely true because it drove the gasoline up a little bit short-term."
