Fox News polling found Democrats ahead on affordability by 14 points and health care by 21. Republicans can keep screaming about made-up culture-war villains; voters still have rent due, groceries to buy, and medical bills nobody can pay with a grievance.

Enten: "Trump is breaking records. Yesterday the Marquette Law School poll came out -- Trump's worst net approval rating on inflation. Minus 61! That's the worst Trump has ever polled on inflation, & not only that, it's the worst any president EVER has polled on inflation. Worse than Jimmy Carter!"

Reflecting Pool Contractor Blames Its Own Repairs, Not Vandals, for Damage

Trump will TACO.
He’ll never allow this to continue. He knows he will lose.
Question is, why does it take the BBC to call Trump out ?
Everyone in the U.S. knew exactly what Trump was doing, but nobody did anything.
Pathetic…

Trump has a rich crony who doesn’t like Bombardier, so he wants to put them out of business resulting in 3,000+ Americans losing their jobs in red states. Because he cares more about his billionaire friends than American workers. If only workers in those states realized it.

That’s an all-time high — and we’re still months away from Election Day.
