Trump has been laying the groundwork for blaming Republicans if his social gathering loses all or half of management of Congress in the midterm election. Before he modified his tune and instructed supporters to faux he was on the poll, Trump usually said in public that the midterm election didn’t matter to him because he isn’t on the poll. Trump repeated his claim that the midterm election doesn’t matter to him during his speech at the UN.

Less than a month in the past, Trump said about Iran:

But I believe we’ll make a deal proper after the election, because it doesn’t make sense for them not to.

They’re ready to see how I do in the midterm election. What they don’t understand is that I’m not working. I did that already and won in a landslide. We won in a big landslide, and I’ll be here for two and a half years.

The Republican Party is working and I’ll be serving to them, but I am not working. I gave completely no credence and will not give credence to the election. When it comes to Iran, it doesn’t even enter my thoughts.

Trump’s lack of concern or care about the midterm election reveals itself in every rally that he does for Republican candidates. 90% or more of Trump’s time at these rallies is spent rambling about whatever is on his thoughts. There is little promotion of the Republican Party or GOP candidates, and Republican operatives are already pointing the finger at Trump for what they view as an upcoming defeat.
