Leavitt: Trump is "calm and cool" after the midterms and will never surrender on the border, law and order or tax cuts

FACTS

Karoline Leavitt said Saturday that President Trump has taken his party's midterm losses in stride and will not give ground on his core agenda once Democrats take control of Congress.

"I've talked to the president a few times since the results on Tuesday night, and he is, you know, calm and cool and collected about it," Leavitt said on Fox News' "My View with Lara Trump," in a clip shared on X by Eric Daugherty. "He did 30 rallies in 30 days. He did 15 tele-rallies on the Monday before the election. He really tried his best to get Republicans over the finish line despite not being on the ballot himself. I think he knew this was probably the likely outcome. He tried anyway."

"He is not ever going to surrender on his core values of border security, of law and order, of cutting taxes, of deregulation," Leavitt said. "But I think he has shown an ability to work with Democrats across the aisle. I've seen it, and he does not get enough credit for that."
