Trump’s impossibly terrible “affordability” messaging

The issue won the 2024 election for the GOP. It could cost them the next one.

On the latest episode of Nir & Rupar, our live weekly video show, David Nir of The Downballot and Aaron Rupar of Public Notice unpack Donald Trump’s wildly out-of-touch — and self-defeating — message on the all-important issue of affordability.

David and Aaron discuss:

  • Why Trump is obsessed with calling affordability a “hoax” — even as his cluelessness makes fellow Republicans blanch.

  • How the Supreme Court’s latest ruling upholding a GOP gerrymander exposes the court’s extreme corruption.

  • Why Republicans are right to be spooked by the recent special election in Tennessee, even though they won.

And much more!
