Tuesday’s election was not a good night for Republicans said many races resulted in victories for Democrats.

President Donald Trump went on Truth Social to give two reasons for those results — the government shutdown and he was not in the ballot, ABC News reported.

“TRUMP WASN’T ON THE BALLOT, AND SHUTDOWN, WERE THE TWO REASONS THAT REPUBLICANS LOST ELECTIONS TONIGHT,” according to Pollsters,” he posted late Tuesday.

He later wrote about doing away with write-in ballots and ending the filibuster. 

Trump claims ending the filibuster would allow Senate Republicans to put an end to the government shutdown, which has continued for 35 days.

Do you agree with Trump's claim that the government shutdown affected Republican election outcomes?

“Pass Voter Reform, Voter ID, No Mail-In Ballots. Save our Supreme Court from “Packing,” No Two State addition, etc. TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER!!!,” Trump wrote.

Trump’s last post was in reference to Zohran Mamdani, who just won the New York City mayoral race.

“…AND SO IT BEGINS!” Trump wrote.

Trump earlier said he’d cut federal funding for New York if Mamdani won.
