Democrats Take Congress as Trump Blames Iran War for GOP Losses

Original: Democrats Take Congress as Trump Says Iran War Is Partly to Blame for GOP Losses

Democrats have won control of Congress, and President Trump said the war with Iran was partly responsible for his party's losses in the elections. The outcome hands legislative power to Democrats and sets up likely confrontations over the administration's agenda. Commentators are focusing on whether the Iran conflict and its costs turned voters against Republican candidates at the polls.

Why now: Midterm or election results gave Democrats control of Congress and Trump's remarks linking the Iran war to Republican losses are drawing attention.
