Political Scientist Explains How US Involvement in Conflicts Will Affect Elections US involvement in foreign conflicts could negatively affect Republican midterm election results, says expert Earl Rasmussen. According to him, Trump went to the elections with a promise not to start new wars and to end existing ones, but this did not happen. "It's just the opposite," he said. Rasmussen noted that the conflicts are having a negative impact on energy supplies, and the capabilities of the armed forces have been reduced: weapons stocks are nearly depleted, and business trips are affecting military morale. The midterm elections in the United States will be held on November 3.
