Trump Says He’ll Accept Midterm Results & Work With Democrats After GOP Setbacks

President Donald Trump has said he will accept the results of the 2026 midterm elections.
Speaking to two reports from The New York Times, Trump stated that he is willing to work with Democrats pending the final results of the midterms, with Democrats projected to win both the House and potentially the Senate, per CNN.
“I am absolutely willing to accept those results,” he told the outlet. “We’ll work with the Democrats, and we’ll, you know, look forward to working with them. We’ll probably work something out.”
On Truth Social, Trump wrote that he “wasn’t on the Ballot” and if he was “we would have won IN A LANDSLIDE!”
According to The New York Times, he said he had no regrets about endorsing candidates like Ken Paxton in Texas and Lindsey Graham‘s sister Senator Darline Graham in South Carolina.
“I’m just looking at these results as I’m talking,” Trump said while watching the election results. “I see that Darline lost. Wow, that’s amazing. How do you think Lindsey would have done if he ran?”
Earlier on election day, Trump made a significant new claim about Israel, saying he planned to cut the $4 billion in aid funding by the end of the year. Read more about what he said here.
