Trump promises ‘bigger majorities’ for GOP even as midterm warning signs flash for his party

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump predicted Wednesday that his party will have larger congressional majorities after November’s midterm elections, even as political warning signs that have privately worried some Republicans for months are starting to flash red.

While Trump said the U.S. “is winning so big” in the war in Iran, it is keeping gas prices high, travelers are facing unprecedented airport security wait times and Americans remain concerned about steep costs of living.
