Affordability ‘Arms Race’ Taking Place Before Midterms, Says Atwater

Peter Atwater, president of Financial Insyghts, said that President Trump’s recent turn toward affordability policies that are in line with left-leaning politicians like Elizabeth Warren and Zohran Mamdani says more about his desire to survive politically rather than his true ideology. Atwater described the current moment as an ‘arms race’ on affordability ahead of the midterms as both Democrats and Republicans try to connect with voters. (Source: Bloomberg)
