- The appeal could shape the 2028 Republican contest.

## Summary

Vice President JD Vance is using the Republicans’ heavy midterm losses to argue for a change in the party’s direction and build support among Trump voters who feel let down by the president’s foreign policy. His comments mark a public difference with Donald Trump over the Iran war and the US relationship with Israel, while positioning Vance as a potential standard-bearer for an “America First” coalition ahead of 2028.

Vance said the Iran war was the reason Republicans lost and listed four priorities for winning voters back: ending the war, tackling living costs and inflation, putting America first, and changing the relationship with Israel. A Trump administration official described this as an appeal to voters who still support Trump but disagree with his foreign policy, rather than a break with him. After the midterms, Democrats held 54 Senate seats to Republicans’ 44, with counting continuing in Alaska.
