US President Donald Trump has questioned the credibility of last week’s election results, sparking fresh debate over the fairness of the electoral process after his Republican Party suffered a poor performance.
Trump took to his Truth Social platform to challenge the outcome, questioning whether the elections were conducted fairly as his party faced setbacks in contests for seats in the House of Representatives and Senate.
“Is there anyone who believes this election was fair? Can an election be this wrong?” Trump asked.
His remarks come despite pre-election opinion polls suggesting that Republicans were heading for a difficult contest, with the party already struggling to attract sufficient public support.
Immediately after the results were announced, Trump blamed his party’s disappointing performance on the United States’ war with Iran, arguing that the conflict had contributed to rising prices of goods and increased pressure on American households.
