How Trump’s Priorities May Impact The Midterms
Panelists joined to discuss the president’s continued interest in renovating landmarks in the nation’s capital.
President Trump's priorities, including the Reflecting Pool and renovations to the White House, may influence the GOP's performance in the upcoming midterms, according to panelists on Washington Week With The Atlantic. The challenges Trump faces, such as low approval ratings, a struggling economy, and the ongoing conflict in Iran, seem to have shifted his focus away from his voter base.
White House correspondent Zolan Kanno-Youngs from The New York Times highlighted the disconnect between the president's current concerns and the voters Republicans are targeting. The Atlantic's chief editor, Jeffrey Goldberg, joined the discussion along with other correspondents, including Carl Hulse, Missy Ryan, and Jonathan Karl, to delve deeper into the impact of Trump's priorities on the midterms.
