> US President Donald Trump said Republicans lost the midterm elections because the media prevented them from effectively conveying their position to the public. He complained that outlets do not report positive news about Republicans or him, while acknowledging voters disliked the Iran war and the resulting rise in gasoline prices, and that there was substantial dislike of Israel among voters.
