DNC plans weekend of events to focus on affordability concerns
Events will include school supply giveaways, food bank drives and organizer trainings as Democrats try to counter Trump on rising costs.
- The Democratic National Committee is organizing hundreds of events this weekend, including school supply giveaways and food bank drives, to address affordability concerns that President Donald Trump previously capitalized on to secure the White House.
- Two years ago, Democrats were accused of being indifferent to Americans' anger about rising prices; now they are pointing the finger at Trump, who has downplayed the impact of lingering inflation.
- Canvassers in Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin will discuss affordability, while Nevada campaigns knock on doors in rural neighborhoods and New Mexico Gov. Michelle Luján Grisham trains 150 potential campaign staffers.
- Democratic strategist Brian Derrick says these events help highlight an "Achilles heel" for Trump: his apparent lack of interest in addressing everyday costs for people.
- Trump has dismissed affordability concerns as a "hoax," though some Democrats fear their agenda may struggle to break through in an increasingly fractured media environment.
