PoliticsTrump distances himself from voters’ anger at Republicans ahead of midterms

President Donald Trump sought to separate himself from voters’ anger toward Republicans ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. In an interview with Punchbowl News released Friday, Trump said he believed voters were upset with the party more broadly, rather than with him personally. His comments framed the dissatisfaction as a wider Republican problem, not a rejection of his own political standing.
