“I don’t think Donald Trump is physically able to campaign like it’s 2024 again, but all that withstanding, he also has something now that he didn’t have against him in 2024.”
According to Cross, “He is now holding the bag for the disaster of peoples’ pocketbooks, for the massive unemployment that we’re seeing, for underemployment, for people lacking affordability.”
“Putting him out on the campaign trail when he’s saying specifically that affordability is a hoax, is probably not the best thing to do,” she added before pointing out that the affordability issue goes across party lines.
Because Trump hasn’t enacted policy to help struggling citizens, “That’s going to hurt him as well,” according to the strategist.
