President Trump launched his new affordability-focused roadshow in Pennsylvania

President Trump launched his new affordability-focused roadshow Tuesday in northeastern Pennsylvania — the first stop on a high-stakes messaging blitz meant to steady the White House after Republicans suffered a bruising off-year election cycle in New Jersey, Virginia and New York City. “I have no higher priority than making America affordable again. That’s what we’re going to do,” he said. “And again, [Democrats] caused the high prices, and we’re bringing them down. It’s a simple message.” Touting his accomplishments, Trump pointed to his tariff strategy, which he claimed was “bringing us hundreds of billions of dollars” as he brushed off criticism from naysayers.
