After Republicans failed to secure a "red wave" in this year's midterm elections, they began to blame Trump since many of his personally endorsed candidates were the ones who lost their races.
"It wasn't my fault that the Republicans didn't live up to expectations in the midterms," he said on Truth Social. "It was the ‘abortion issue,’ poorly handled by many Republicans...that lost large numbers of voters.
Also, the people that pushed so hard, for decades, against abortion, got their wish from the U.S. Supreme Court, and just plain disappeared, not to be seen again."
Ever since the failures in the midterms, support for Trump and his 2024 campaign has waned. He has also been involved in quite a few scandals since announcing his intent to run in 2024, which probably hurts his chances.
