Trump acknowledged the Republican defeat in the congressional elections

US President Donald Trump acknowledged his party's defeat in the midterm elections after initial projections indicated a decisive victory for the Democrats. Media forecasts suggest the Democratic Party will secure majorities in both chambers of the US Congress. While accepting the outcome, Trump refused to take personal responsibility for the loss.
