Trump admits Iran war hurt Republicans at the polls

Original: Exclusive | Trump Acknowledges Iran War Is Partly to Blame for Republican Losses

President Donald Trump has acknowledged, in remarks reported by the Wall Street Journal, that the war with Iran was partly responsible for Republican losses in recent elections. The admission is notable given Trump's usual insistence that his policies have not cost his party politically, and it signals internal concern within the Republican Party about the conflict's electoral cost.

Why now: Trump rarely admits his own decisions damaged his party's election results, making the concession newsworthy
