Former White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney reports that US President Donald Trump has been highly critical of Republican candidates for poor polling numbers.
“He’s spent a lot of energy in the last 48 hours, laying the foundation for blaming other people for a Republican failure,” Mr Mulvaney told News24.
“He’s talked about how it’s the candidate’s fault; he’s talked about how it’s his advisors’ fault, talked about how it’s the fault of men and women in the Senate.
“Republicans are out there pulling money out of competitive races; they’re moving money around.”
