US Vice President Vance explained why the Republicans lost the election. This explanation largely contradicts Trump's policy. ⠀.
According to Vance, it has nothing to do with turnout. Republican voters came to the polls. Only many of those who voted for Trump and Vance in 2024 voted for the Democrats this time.
⠀.
Vance cites a poll in which a poll asked lapsed voters what would bring them back to the Republicans. Almost everyone said four things: end the war, deal with prices, put America first and change relations with Israel. ⠀.
Vance's conclusion: "The reason for our defeat is the war." To those who supported the war he says: If you think it was worth losing the Senate for six years, be honest about it (for 6 years, because the Democrats who took seats from the Republicans in this election will sit in the Senate until 2032).
⠀.
Vance has previously publicly defended war with Iran. And after the election, Trump himself admitted that the war was only "part" of the reasons, and still called it justified. Vance goes against Trump - the vice president argues with the president in his absence. This appears to be the start of Vance's 2028 presidential campaign. And he, most likely, will build it on the basis of abandoning the path of Trump, who led the Republicans to defeat. Oleg Tsarev. Telegram and Max.
