About this episode
President Donald Trump made an affordability push on Tuesday night in Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania, where he spoke for more than an hour-and-a-half. The speech was billed as a major opening salvo in an increasing affordability push from the White House ahead of the midterms. The president clung to the idea that the high day-to-day expenses many Americans are facing is the fault of former President Joe Biden. But at various points he also veered off on tangents. So what do voters really think? Playbook’s Jack Blanchard and White House reporter Megan Messerly dig in.
