The recent US midterm elections gave Democrats control of both the Senate and the House, a shift the Economic Times says weakens President Trump’s influence over the Republican Party and creates a new front for India‑US ties in Congress. US Vice President JD Vance and others attribute Republican losses to the Iran war, inflation, the “America First” agenda and concerns over Washington’s ties with Israel, with only about 22 % of the public supporting the Iran conflict. Democrats leader Chuck Schumer has called for an end to the war, while Trump acknowledges the war hurt Republicans but says he would repeat the decision.
