Trump blames Fox News, GOP candidates for midterm losses Nov 07, 2026

Description

By the time the House and Senate had been called for Democrats on Tuesday, a consensus among members of both parties was forming: voters had rejected President Donald Trump’s record in office, and he would face a starkly different political reality for the remainder of his term.

Trump, however, sees it very differently.

“I don’t view it as a hit on me,” Trump told Fox News in a live phone interview.

CNN's Julia Benbrook reports and CNN's Kate Bolduan discusses with a panel of political pundits.
