The Republican Party has faced significant losses, in part due to the ongoing conflict in Iran. The prolonged war has become a substantial factor in their political setbacks.
Vice President JD Vance attended the 2026 Republican National Convention held in Dallas on September 10. The event revealed internal challenges within the party, partially attributed to foreign policy decisions.
Despite these challenges, President Donald Trump stands by his decision to engage militarily with Iran. On election night, he expressed his unwavering confidence in this strategy. Speaking to Politico, he stated, “I’m totally convinced that my decision on Iran, for the long-term good of our country and even the world, was an absolutely correct one — and it continues to be.”
