US President Donald Trump addressed American voters who went to the polls yesterday for the midterm elections, saying, “We must keep America great.” More than 210 million registered Americans out of 250 million eligible were called to vote in the midterm elections, which will shape the remaining two years of President Trump’s second term. Voters cast ballots to choose all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 35 of the 100 seats in the Senate, as well as to elect 36 new state governors and other local officials in state legislatures.
In remarks to Fox News, Trump described the midterms as “the most important, because we have already succeeded in restoring greatness to America,” expressing optimism that the results “will be better than we expect.” He accused Democrats of rigging the Alaska election, stating, “We cannot allow the radical left to take over the United States.”
Amid growing anticipation of renewed strikes against Iran, President Trump said, “We can eliminate Iran, and we may have to target the Mount Fars site there.” Commenting on US media reports that limited strikes had targeted Iran’s Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz overnight, Trump said, “Yesterday’s attack on Iran was not a war, but a limited strike.” He added that “Iran built an air defense facility, and as soon as it was completed, we heavily bombed it yesterday.”
