Ask what Korea is talking about.

President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he would accept the midterm results but quickly shifted blame to fellow Republicans, according to the Korea Times. On Truth Social, Trump claimed, "I was not on the ballot. If I had run, we would have won by a landslide," as reported by Dong-a Ilbo, amid Democratic gains in the House and Senate races in South Carolina and North Carolina. Early takeaways from the Korea Times show voters deeply unhappy with Trump over cost of living and corruption, with the midterms serving as a referendum on his second term. Korean outlets report the election as a historic rout for Republicans, with Trump deflecting responsibility while accepting the outcome.
