Never Admit Defeat": Trump refused to consider the failure of the Republicans in the US midterm elections as his personal loss as a result of the vote, the Democrats gained control of both houses of Congress. "I am not inclined to consider this result my defeat. I was not at the polls," US President Donald Trump said in an interview with Fox News. The network recalls the feature film "The Apprentice", which tells about the beginning of the career of the future US president. In the story, in the 70s, the young Trump meets the lawyer Roy Cohen, who becomes his mentor. The rules of victory that the lawyer in the film teaches Trump: 1. Attack, attack, attack - attack, attack, attack. 2. Admit nothing, deny everything - Admit nothing, deny everything. 3. No matter what happens, claim victory and never admit defeat - No matter what happens, declare victory and never admit defeat.
