GOP Report Downplays Trump Role in Midterm Losses, Doesn't Mention Ex-President by Name

A draft Republican report examining the party's poor showing in the 2022 midterm elections avoids mentioning Donald Trump's influence and downplays his role in endorsing far-right candidates who went on to lose in November
The report pins much of the blame on the party's positions on abortion following the overturning of Roe v. Wade and acknowledges that Republicans underestimated voter backlash.
The report also calls on Republicans to improve fundraising and get-out-the-vote operations to counter Democrats' advantages in those areas.
While not naming Trump directly, the report urges Republicans to nominate candidates who can appeal to a wider range of voters in a civil manner.
The report warns that if Republicans don't learn from their 2022 missteps, the party could face even bigger losses in 2024 and beyond.
