Former US Vice President Mike Pence (during Trump's first term) rejected the claim of current US Vice President J. Dee Vance said that the war with Iran was the reason for the overwhelming defeat of the Republicans in the midterm elections, and said that the problem was not the start of the war, but the fact that it was not completed.
"It's not because President Trump started a war or clashed with Iran. The fact is we stopped and we didn't finish it," Pence said.
