Trump said it’s not his fault if Republicans lose Congress in Midterms 2018

Listen to this article

The U.S President Donald Trump said of himself and the effect his campaign that he doesn’t believe anybody’s ever had this kind of an impact. He delivered his words over the effect his campaign blitz has had for Republican candidates ahead of America’s upcoming congressional elections. Trump has been campaigning aggressively and continuously attending a torrent of rallies managed to fire up Republican voters and boost the chance of his party of keeping control on the U.S Senate and the U.S House of Representatives.

Trump faces the prospect of a bruising electoral defeat with a “blue wave”, in spite of his efforts. He is expecting to sweep away the Republican dominance in the House, bringing an end to the triple-headed Republican power-hold in Washington. Trump has already absolved himself of any blame if he does lose his majority on 6 November. He said that even though he has tried to help, as he is not running himself, people may not turn up to vote.

He also informed the Associated Press, “I’m not running. I mean, there are many people that have said to me. ‘I will never ever go and vote in the midterms because you’re not running and I don’t think you like Congress”. He added, “Well, I do like Congress”.

The crowds at my Rallies are far bigger than they have ever been before, including the 2016 election. Never an empty seat in these large venues, many thousands of people watching screens outside. Enthusiasm & Spirit is through the roof. SOMETHING BIG IS HAPPENING – WATCH!

The Democrats want to take both congressional houses in order to regain any control of the U.S political narrative and block the policy programs of Trump administration. The major prize would be the Senate control of which would allow Democrats to block the Supreme Court picks of Trump and his Cabinet appointments. But, Republicans remain confident that they will get control of the U.S Senate and with good reason. The Grand Old Party (GOP) is defending 26 seats and far more than the 9 of Democrats which are up for grabs.

It is noteworthy that if the Republicans lose control of the U.S House, it would be entirely in keeping with recent U.S political history and spell disaster for Trump.
