The Republican Party’s generational collapse in this week’s midterm elections ushered in a wave of finger-pointing largely aimed at the Oval Office, exposing deep fissures within the party and opening the door for 2028 hopefuls to hone their message.

Vice President JD Vance, the GOP’s presumed frontrunner, on Wednesday distanced himself from both President Donald Trump and the war against Iran. He blamed the party’s defeat on the war, the cost of living and US-Israel ties, saying the conflict cost his party the Senate for at least six years.

Democrats won control of both chambers of the US Congress in a midterm election landslide that amounted to a rejection of President Donald Trump following widespread voter discontent with the economy and the war in Iran.

Across the country, Democrats scored victories in GOP strongholds, flipping at least seven Senate seats and winning House races in districts Republicans easily carried in 2024. Several news organizations projected that Democrats would win the House, while Decision Desk HQ projected they took the Senate.

For reaction and analysis, hosts David Gura and Kailey Leinz speak with Adam Hodge, Managing Director at Bully Pulpit International and Bloomberg Contributor, Patrick McHenry, Former Republican Congressman from North Carolina, former House Financial Services Committee Chairman, Bloomberg Contributor and Ron Brownstein, Bloomberg Opinion columnist covering politics and policy.
